Thanks!
It seems that only plain transparancy works in PNG.
As Brad mentioned the effects like Multiply, Darken, Color etc. can't be exported.

As Ton mentioned, your PNG is fine. However, when you mention 100% Multiply, what do you mean by that? Transparency effects do not carry to an exported file format. They are only valid in the original program used to create the graphic.

If you did open the image directly in the browser; some browsers add a background.

If the example file you enclosed is the problem file, that has a perfect transparent background in Photoshop.
