Given that behavior, it's basically guaranteed to be a server issue.  
You should contact them and inform them that the filename portion of  
a Content-Disposition header must be quoted if it includes spaces.

Camino and Firefox are doing the right thing here; treating spaces as  
the spec says is a necessary part of correctly handling all forms of  
that header. Safari and IE don't stop at the space as they should.
