Let me know if this link works for you (works for me in both IE and lynx):

   http://u.nu/test/download-intro.html

Here's the code I used (stolen liberally from yours):

<?

// clean up file name
$file = preg_replace(
  array('/^\//', '/\.\.+/', '/[^a-zA-Z0-9\.\-_ ]/', '/\.php\b/'),
  '', $PATH_INFO);

if (is_readable($file))
{
  header("Content-type: application/octet-stream\n");
  header("Content-disposition: attachment; filename=\"$file\"\n");
  header("Content-transfer-encoding: binary\n");
  header("Content-length: ".filesize($file)."\n");
  readfile($file);
}

?>
