Fixed  Uploading avatar using IE

When I try to upload my avatar in IE, I get a download popup, wanting do download index.php.

I use IE8, and I have no special settings in IE.

I tried the same with Firefox and Chrome, everything works fine there.
 
No, that's the weird thing about it.

I use IE 8.0.6001.18702

Googling on "php_auto_file" shows some people have the same with IE.

I've added a screenshot of it (it's Dutch, but I don't think that matters).

It asks me whether I want to open or save the file.

I can confirm this error. I've came across it a few times. I'll post again when I get the same error.
 
I came across this error on my laptop. It does seem to be an IE error because I used Firefox and it worked fine. This problem when uploading an avatar. I actually reproduced it more than once on IE only,

Does it also happen on xenforo.com ?
I had a similar issue at one point when nginx was not configured correctly.
 
This is wat is in the file for me:

{"sizeCode":"m","maxWidth":96,"maxDimension":"height","width":257,"height":192,"cropX":16,"cropY":0,"urls":{"l":"data\/avatars\/l\/0\/1.jpg?1288432328","m":"data\/avatars\/m\/0\/1.jpg?1288432328","s":"data\/avatars\/s\/0\/1.jpg?1288432328"},"user_id":1,"avatar_date":1288432328,"cropCss":{"left":"-32px","top":"0px"}}
 
I just ran into this, and I believe I've now found a workaround using Content-Disposition.
