Have you tried to telnet to localhost:80 and given it a valid request header
to see what your response from teh webserver is?

when connected via telnet to port 80, type:
GET / HTTP/1.1[enter]
Host: yourhost.com[enter]
[enter]
[enter]

You should see something like:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Mon, 25 Feb 2002 23:20:35 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.20 (Unix) PHP/4.0.6 mod_ssl/2.8.4 OpenSSL/0.9.6
X-Powered-By: PHP/4.0.6
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Content-Type: application/pdf

This will tell you if the data is indeed being transferred....hope it helps.
