Anis, It sounds like you tried something more sensible and rational than Matt suggested. But you need to try exactly what he suggested - make sure that the last characters of the URL that fetches the PDF document are ".pdf". It's kind of yucky, but I had the same problem and solution a year or two ago, and it sounds like IE hasn't fixed this "feature" yet. Francis.
