Getting cgi-bin working in apache.

I'm trying to process an HTML form. I've got apache up and running
and I've uncommented the line "AddHandler cgi-script .cgi" in
httpd.conf. When I load the form page (/var/www/html/entry.htm) into
the browser and hit the submit program I expected calculate.cgi to
start. It's in /var/www/cgi-bin. Instead what I get is a pop up
saying "You have chosen to open calculate.cgi which is a: CGI script
from /var/www/cgi-bin. What should Firefox do with this file? Open
with Text Editor or save to disk?"
I've checked the permissions of calculate.cgi. It runs from the
command line (I've done a chmod +x) Any ideas about how to fix this or
where to look for advise?
Thanks in advance,
