I know of two things you can do to help.  You may need to combine the
two to get consistent results across browsers:

1. Set "AcceptPathInfo On"
and then instead of requesting http://yoursite.example.com/yyy.zip,
request http://yoursite.example.com/yyy.zip/production-zipfile.zip

2. Use mod_headers to send the Content-Disposition head with the
filename= option.  Something like
Head Add Content-Disposition filename=production-zipfile.zip
