Just a guess:

  Are you using tomcat standalone ?

  If yes try to use tomcat with apache.

  Tomcat 3.* implement HTTP 1.0
  Maybe the IE uses some HTTP 1.1 features 
  to download Word files. (Remember it's just 
  a guess, we had this kind of problems
  with the acrobat plugin for IE and
  a file servlet under jserv, that didn't
  deal with byte range requests (HTTP 1.1))
