Embed google docs without publishing

I would like to embed a google docs in a web page BUT I do not want to publish it. I do not want it to be searchable by search engines.

I want to share it with the "share > anyone with the link" option. So I do not want to use https://docs.google.com/document/pub?id=DOCS_ID&embedded=true but want to use https://docs.google.com/document/d/DOCS_ID/preview

I can embed it in firefox and chrome but IE gives me the following error: "This content cannot be displayed in a frame To help protect the security of information you enter into this website, the publisher of this content does not allow it to be displayed in a frame."

"publisher of this content" = "Google or me" clearly allows it for Chrome and Firefox. But why not IE?

Any workaround?

If you don't want to set "X-Frame-Options" as explained in the good link below:

Overcoming "Display forbidden by X-Frame-Options"

Then you can simply uncheck "Require user login to view this form" in your Google form.

Go to File -> Embed and use the latest link in your website and it will work in IE also! I was facing the same problem and I have solved it by this approach.
