Open Find.dlg from Internet Explorer

I'm trying to call the Ctrl+F function in IE using a javascript function
initiated by an input button on a webpage:
showModelessDialog("/website/find/find.dlg", args);
I copied the find.dlg and findinc.dlg to the webserver so I could call the
files from a webpage.

It works perfect from my development machine (XP Pro), but when I copy it to
our test server (Win Server 2003) it gives me a File not Found (404) error.
I think the problem is someone in IIS security, but I can't find the problem.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what to try?

Have you added the DLG extension to the MIME mappings and enabled it? If
not, IIS6 won't let it be downloaded - it's one of the security enhancements
to prevent just any old file being pulled off a server.
