Any way to stop IE from rendering XML files?

When I try to open an XML file or get XML as a response
from an http call, IE wants to reformat this and make
it "pretty." Is there any way to disable this feature so
it just displays the results as plain text?
 
Incidentally, if I try to do a "View Source" on the XML
response, I get the following error:

"XML source file is unavailable for viewing"

Microsoft's only discussion of this error is regarding
trying to save the MSXML default XSL stylesheet. I'm not
trying to view that. I am trying to view an XML response
from an http call.

Any thoughts?
