    I don't believe Peter was suggesting a solution at all; he was merely
    pointing out that the OP wanted the semantics of "no-store", not "no-cache".

    Unfortunately, as the Microsoft article referenced in the original post
    clearly points out, IE6sp1 will not render PDF files that are served with
    "no-store", either.
