Save Target As does not work for some file types

I have an ASP application that uploads a specified file to the server. To retrieve the file, I simply assign the filepath and file to a hyperlink on the page. When you click "Save Target As" for some file types, I get the following error messsage: IE can not download <file> from <server>. IE was not able to open this internet site. The requested site is either unavalable or can not be found. Can anyone tell me how to save a file of any type? It works for MS Word, Excell, text files..

Thanks.
