Why do you have auto download on?
What browser are you on.

I mean, it still downloads, just to a temporary folder somewhere in the system directories. The only difference is that it deletes after some time and doesn't make mess in the Downloads folder.

So another questions: is there a way to load only a part of a PDF document without having to download the whole thing? Like it loads the first ~5 pages and as you scroll down, it loads more and more. This might be useful for viewing scanned books - you need one page but the document has 500 pages and 750 MB.
