This article was previously published under Q275330 SYMPTOMS
When Internet Explorer receives compressed files from a Web server, Internet Explorer saves some document types (for example, .js and .css files) in a compressed format. When the document is reloaded from the cache, the document cannot be loaded.
WORKAROUND
To work around this issue, the Web page author can set an expiration on .js and .css files to ensure that Internet Explorer loads them from the server every time they are requested.
STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
