Thanks George.

Regarding manipulation of headers: point taken.

Regarding non-Adobe PDF viewers: They seem to work fine. My instance of Safari, for example, which is configured to open PDF inside the browser without using the Adobe plugin, works without a hitch. This is one more piece of evidence suggesting that the source of the problem lies in the Adobe plugin itself.
