Consider using HttpResponse.TransmitFile (ASP.NET >= 2.0), especially for large files because it writes the file without buffering it into server memory.

Also, make sure you always set the Response.ContentType property to the appropriate MIME type or browsers will sometimes have trouble with downloading your files correctly, especially if you are writing the file from a handler:

Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";
