I'm using IE6 with all the latest updates on Win2K.

Just check out any post archived on Google Groups (http://groups.google.com/)
and click on the "Original Format" link in the upper right corner of the post.
Note that the "Original Format" link is only present when you're looking at
an individual post, not if you're viewing an entire thread.

Try http://tinyurl.com/nm7 and click the "Original Format" link, I just
went there to make sure I get the behavior I described.

Tx for the hint. I unchecked "Accept-encoding: Allow webpage encoding (out)"
(which is checked by default) and it works fine now. When I get some free time I'll try to take a look at what's going on to cause that result.

Happens on a lot of them, but one that comes to mind
first is if you're reading an individual post on Google
Groups and click on "Original Format" in the upper
right hand corner. Proxomitron off, the text shows up
in the browser. Proxomitron on, I'm asked if I want to
Open or Save it, and it just returns a file filled with
gibberish.

Hi folks, hopefully someone knows what's happening with my
setup and how I can work around it. Without Promomitron, if I
click on a link to a text file, it comes up in the browser
and I can view it fine. When Proxomitron enabled, when I
click on the same link, a dialog pops up asking whether I
want to Open or Save the file -- no matter which I choose,
the data that's downloaded is just a bunch of jibberish.

Thanks for any help,
W
