I'm confused - from the webserver's perspective, what's the difference?

Hm.. is there a way to force that behaviour (short of renaming the
extension to not be .mov?) That would be a nifty trick. It seems like
there is a way to force the reverse, that is, there are pages that
launch the player IN a new page when you click on the link and don't
(easily) let you save.

With apache, it should be doable - basically override the mime-type for
.mov files in that directory, maybe even for that particular file.

For IIS, I'm not the guy to talk to :)
