IE9 refreshing page during save-as

I manage an older application for managing user passwords and access. The application creates a popup window with a simple HTML page that, until IE9, could be saved as a text file. Because of the sensitivity of the information, the form can only be viewed once. In IE9, the popup window opens and displays the information correctly, but when save-as is used to save the form as a text file, the browser reaches back to the web server and requests the page data again, resulting in the password information being displayed as previously viewed.
I have read a lot of forum posts and comments about cache management, but did not see anything that applied to this issue. Is this some setting that I have missed in IE9, or is there something I can code into the page to keep this from happening?
The issue was reported from the field on what I believe was a Windows 7/IE9 32 bit platform. I was able to recreate the issue using a Win7x64-Enterprise/IE9 virtual machine.
Thanks to anyone who might be able to provide me any pointers or help!
