I've got the same problem with IE 4.01, so I looked for it at MIcrosoft and I got:
According to RFC 2183, servers should be able to force a Save-As type dialog box by
sending a "Content-Disposition: attachment" server response header to the client when
sending the requested file back to the browser. Because of a bug (or "feature") in
Internet Explorer's data-sniffing architecture, this header is mostly ignored in
Internet Explorer 4.01. See Knowledge Base article BUG: Content-Disposition: Does not
Force File Download Dialog
<http://msdn.microsoft.com/isapi/gosupport.asp?TARGET=/support/kb/articles/q182/3/15.asp>
At the moment I never made test using IE 5, probably, I'll run it in future.
Bye
Darvin

I did not try Content-Length, but I have tried Content-Type with
Content-Disposition which did not work.

Not if you send out the correct headers:
header("Content-Type: $mimetype";
header("Content-Length: $filelength");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$filename");
