If you’re having trouble downloading files (using passthrough scripts) in IE over SSL, the fix is to turn off cache headers. To do this in Apache:
<Files filename.php>
Header unset Pragma
Header unset Cache-Control

Workaround for IE/SSL downloading file problem
I ran into this problem before and I didn’t find a descent solution. So you might be interested with the one proposed by Alex King.
Header unset Pragma
Header unset Cache-Control
(I didn’t test it myself yet)
IE Download Bug
Alex King came across a work around for the IE file download bug. I found this one on Joseph Scott’s blog previously and it seems to work well:
https://alexking.org/blog/wp-trackback.php/1108
i assume this line is added in in the httpd.conf file?
It’s an Apache configuration setting, so httpd.conf or .htaccess.
Adding a bogus Pragma header works too.
In PHP:
header(“Pragma: dummy=bogus”);
header(“Cache-Control: private”);
