Since you are delivering pdf file directly into the browser, displayed using Adobe Reader ActiveX, how can it be possible to prevent file download, since the files are displayed after downloaded into your temp directory?

So it is not possible using ANY JavaScript library.

The only way to secure your master PDF files is by creating Images for each page and present those to the user on the web via your own interface (html, flash etc).

You may use ImageMagick along with GhostScript for this.
