Hi everybody,

I recently discovered a strange problem with download of PDF files 
when using the Internet Explorer.

I have a link to a PDF in  
http://www.kflog.org/kflog/kflog-in-the-press/

When you hit this link in Firefox or Opera or Konqueror, the file 
will be displayed in the browser.  You can download the file, too, 
and open it with Acrobat afterwards.

But when you use IE, the file will not be displayed.  Sometimes IE 
or Acrobat complain, that it is not valid PDF ("File does not start 
with '%PDF'").  If you download the file, it is totally corrupted.

The file itself (on the server) is correct.  The problem also 
occurres with other PDFs on the same server.

Does anybody have any idea what's going wrong here?


Thanks in advance,


    Heiner
