Yes. The web server doesn't care about the browser at all.
It's the browser's decision how to present the content.

I suppose the "list of PDFs" is meant to be a list of
links. If so, I have no idea why it should trigger the
presented behaviour in IEx. The ActiveX control is only
loaded if PDF content is displayed in an IEx frame.

If PDF is displayed in an IEx window, I don't think there
is a work around without fiddling with the client side
options, like tweaking the IEX security options in order
to suppress the message or telling IEx not to present PDF
inline but start Acrobat Reader as an external program
instead.
