Uhm, where? Oh, now I see... ServletUtilities.zipIt is supposed
to implicitly set the content-encoding on the OutputStream somehow? Is
this the ServletUtilties from CoreServlets? I'm not finding a zipIt
method at http://archive.coreservlets.com/Javadoc/

Anyway, I'd still say from the sound of it the content-encoding
type isn't getting set. Something I like to do is use a little port
forwarding program to watch the client and the server talk back and
forth and see what's really being sent. I used to use HttpProxySpy
for this a few years back, it had a handy display. But it appears to
be commercial now and it doesn't install properly to boot, so I have a
simple java program that just shoves bytes back and forth and prints
them out to a log in between. I really need to improve it so it
doesn't bother printing out the binary data :-).
