Corrupted download with Firefox v. 7

I sell software which can be downloaded after purchase. The download is initiated via a cgi script, and has been working flawlessly for years.

Now, people using Foxfire v. 7.0 are reporting they're unable to download the file, getting a message that the download is corrupted ("Corrupted Content Error. The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because an error in the data transmission was detected."). There is no trouble downloading with Internet Explorer or an earlier version of Firefox.

I have tried it myself and get the same error.
