I encounter the problem both in Chrome under Windows and in Android's browser.
Since the bug is old and have not been fixed until now, I'm not sure it will be
fixed
in the near future, especially taking into account its status (Untriaged ==
undecided what to do).
Also some Android devices are not updated normally, so even if a browser fix
would be available, it would not help. This is why I think there should be a
workaround
on a server-side to cheet the browser somehow.

Subject: Re: [twsocket] Binary download problem solving
There is an issue, which is not directly related to ICS, but since
ICS provides
a webserver that may help in solving it, I'd like to hear some
advices from you.
The problem happens with Chrome and Android's browsers while
downloading binary files
from a webserver. You may read description of the bug at
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=104331
This is a long one year old thread, during which time no-one has found a
solution. I only skimmed the thread, but it seems a badly behaved
download manager is involved and messing with server headings is an
attempt to make Chrome download something in the hope it's better.
It really looks like a Goggle issue, let them fix it.
Is this problem reproducible with Chrome under Windows, or is it simply
non-Windows platforms?
