File name corruption on file upload (IE)

Question

I implemented a simple file upload and download mechanism. When the user clicks on the file name, the file is uploaded using these HTTP headers:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Tue, 30 Sep 2008 14:00:39 GMT
Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=filename.doc;
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
Content-Length: 10754

I also support Japanese file names. To do this, I encode the file name using this java method:

private String encodeFileName(String name) throws Exception{
    String agent = request.getHeader("USER-AGENT");
    if(agent != null && agent.indexOf("MSIE") != -1){ // is IE
        StringBuffer res = new StringBuffer();
        char[] chArr = name.toCharArray();
        for(int j = 0; j < chArr.length; j++){
            if(chArr[j] < 128){ // plain ASCII char
                if (chArr[j] == '.' && j != name.lastIndexOf("."))
                    res.append("%2E");
                else
                    res.append(chArr[j]);
            }
            else{ // non-ASCII char
                byte[] byteArr = name.substring(j, j + 1).getBytes("UTF8");
                for(int i = 0; i < byteArr.length; i++){
                    // byte must be converted to unsigned int
                    res.append("%").append(Integer.toHexString((byteArr[i]) & 0xFF));
                }
            }
        }
        return res.toString();
    }
    // Firefox/Mozilla
    return MimeUtility.encodeText(name, "UTF8", "B");
}

Until now, it worked well until someone found out that it does not work with long file names. For example: あああああああああああああああ2008.10.1あ.doc. If I change one single-point point to a single-byte underscore or delete the first character, it works fine. that is, it depends on the length and URL encoding of the dot character. Below are a few examples.

This is broken ( あああああああああああああああ2008.10.1あ.doc):

Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%822008%2E10%2E1%e3%81%82.doc;

This is normal ( あああああああああああああああ2008_10.1あ.doc):

Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%822008_10%2E1%e3%81%82.doc;

This is also fine ( あああああああああああああああ2008.10.1あ.doc):

Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%82%e3%81%822008%2E10%2E1%e3%81%82.doc;

Does anyone have a key?
