I have a signed cab on an aspx page. I am seeing the following inconsistent behavior. Any insights would be highly appreciated.
- On some machines, the cab is downloaded and installed on every page refresh.
- On few of those machines, the IE "install cab" dialog pops up on every page refresh, while on the others it pops up only once.
Additional info:
- The CAB contains a .NET DLL
- The CAB is slightly large (around 30 MB), hence recurring download behavior is a pain
Target browsers are IE6 and IE7, and the behavior is common to both!
