powerpoint internet explorer behavior

It looks like IE is doing this behavior, but i'm not positive if i'm right.
If you link directy to a large powerpoint file (20mb+) on a website, does it
download only a few slides at a time in order to quickly display the ppt?
This is pretty cool if it does. It looked like every few pages i paged down,
it would ask if i wanted to view or save, then continue showing me slides in
the browser.



Is this right? I just want to be sure. It would prevent us from having to do
anything special to display large powerpoint files on our web servers.

I am having this same type of issue although the PowerPoint file is not being
downloaded over the Internet but rather off my hard drive.

I would like to use an html file to link to the PPS files but have them open
directly in PowerPoint rather than an IE window. Does anyone know how to
accomplish that?

Thanks kindly,
ilg
