Opening PDF within IE7 - file could not be written to cache

ll
I have a page in in ASP which lists static links to PDF files. When
users click on the links, they receive the following message:

right-clicking on the link and selecting "save target as" generates
the following error message from IE7:
"The file could not be written to the cache"

Clicking the link, and selecting "save" from the resultant dialog
generates:
"Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet site. The
requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found please try
again later"

This page works fine in Mozilla.
I've researched this a bit and have read about the caching issues,
although none of the pages on the site address cache control. Any
thoughts or ideas as to why this isn't working?

Thanks,
Louis

Please show the relevant ASP [vbs or js or ...] code.
