You need to set the MIME type in the response headers. See
http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc1341/4_Content-Type.html For example:
String contentType = "audio/mpeg"; // for .mp3 file
response.setContentType(contentType);
You should be setting the content type for your other files, also.
Windows Explorer will guess at the file type based on the file extension
(actually, it often just passes it to the OS and lets it guess the
type), but most browsers follow the standards on this.
