Hmm, that's interesting, I've just tried Firefox and it behaves just as
you say. I then tried IE6 on another machine and it does the same.

So I wonder why IE7 just gives me an open/save dialog box, not for
the attachment, but for file_download.php itself! And if I click on
"Open", it starts up Dreamweaver!
