have you set the no cache headers for the image download? [on the server side]

also, in your example, it looks like the onload and onerror methods
are empty functions. is this true or just a shorthand? it may be that
one of these events needs to fire in order to initiate the download.

if the image never is displayed on the page, maybe an IE
'optimization' would delay the request until it is displayed. this is
a guess.

another approach would be to use a library [prototype, jQuery] to grab
the image for you instead of updating the src attribure on the Image
object.
