This is one of *many* insane cases where IE won't show content or
successfully hand it off to the assigned application if/when it decides
that it shouldn't cache said content.
Clearly this is a horrible design bug, but Microsoft always just says to
change the caching settings or to change your server code. In many
cases there is no cache setting change you can make on the client so in
many cases the solution is the latter.
This and other bugs in MSIE in dealing with compressed data have gotten
so bad that we compress almost nothing for MSIE -- whereas we almost
everything for other browsers.

Can you try explicity setting that in your xml output?
