Good suggestion, but I logged out of dispatchRequest and the headers were exactly the same.
I was able to fix it by using AjaxProgress with a nice AjaxProgressBar in place of my old ERXLongResponse component. The component returning the page did not change. I assume it has something to do with the way ERXLongResponse makes a bunch of pages in a row that reload after a couple of seconds, but it is IE so why speculate. It works now, I am happy. Here is a forum suggesting it is due to IE security update (KB2586448): http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/iewebdevelopment/thread/527c1d58-7f07-4413-8868-7b634788af47 Good to know I am not completely loosing my mind.
