Again.... PDF & Internet Explorer

This problem has been reported several times in several newsletters,
but I still can't figure out a solution.

My requirement is to allow people to open/save a pdf file. I've written
a servlet that does this job and it works perfectly on Mozilla &
Firefox, but not in IE6 (6.0.2800). With IE, the open/save dialog
appears, and I can succesfully save the file; on the contrary, when I
try to open the file, Acrobat starts and give an error message saying
that it cannot find the file.

The TCPMon shows this HTTP message

HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Can anyone explaining where I'm wrong?
