I have now confirmed that (in my case at least) gzip encoding was the problem NOT Expires: 0.
I have a working example with the following header information: HTTP/1.0 200 OK Server: httpd/1.00 Cache-Control: no-cache Expires: 0 Content-Type: text/xml which worked. the original response which was failing was due to gzip encoding: HTTP/1.0 200 OK Server: httpd/1.00 Cache-Control: no-cache Expires: 0 Content-Type: text/xml Content-Encoding: gzip Content-Length: 921 This appears to be a IE bug.
