Posting a gedcom on a personal website?

I uploaded a gedcom to my website for a friend to download. When I try to
download it, it opens in IE6 as a text file. How do I upload it so that it
downloads as a complete file - and doesn't open? Zip it up? (I tried that
and it works - but is there a better way?)
