Are you accessing the PDFs over https?

If yes: I recently encountered a problem where I was unable to save PDFs 
  streamed through PHP in IE over https (whereas exactly the same files 
could be accessed with no problems over http).

Here's a Microsoft support article I found at the time:

<http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;q316431&>

This refers specifically to Office documents, but I encountered the same 
issue with PDFs.

Cheers,
Noah
