Long delay when loading pdf via proxy

I'm observing a strange problem:
When I try to load a pdf file in the browser (no matter if Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox), it takes a very long time (>30 seconds) to load.
This problem only occurs when I am using our corporate proxy server. When I'm directly connected to the internet, everything works smoothly.
An analysis of the network traffic showed that all packets arrive within a short time, as it should be, but the plugin seems to wait 30 seconds for something.
This problem even occurs when the pdf file is still in the browser cache and only a 'Not Modified' message comes from the server.

As I have to open pdf files frequently, this is very annoying.

Does anybody observe the same problem or has anyone an idea why this delay occurs?
