caching - Better Way to Prevent IE Cache in AngularJS?

Question

I currently use service/$resource to make ajax calls (GET in this case), and IE caches the calls so that fresh data cannot be retrieved from the server. I have used a technique I found by googling to create a random number and append it to the request, so that IE will not go to cache for the data.

Is there a better way than adding the cacheKill to every request?

factory code

.factory('UserDeviceService', function ($resource) {

        return $resource('/users/:dest', {}, {
            query: {method: 'GET', params: {dest: "getDevicesByUserID"}, isArray: true }
        });

Call from the controller

$scope.getUserDevices = function () {
        UserDeviceService.query({cacheKill: new Date().getTime()},function (data) {
            //logic
        });
    }

As described in one of my other posts, you could disable caching globally in the $httpProvider:

myModule.config(['$httpProvider', function($httpProvider) {
    //initialize get if not there
    if (!$httpProvider.defaults.headers.get) {
        $httpProvider.defaults.headers.get = {};    
    }    

    // Answer edited to include suggestions from comments
    // because previous version of code introduced browser-related errors

    //disable IE ajax request caching
    $httpProvider.defaults.headers.get['If-Modified-Since'] = 'Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT';
    // extra
    $httpProvider.defaults.headers.get['Cache-Control'] = 'no-cache';
    $httpProvider.defaults.headers.get['Pragma'] = 'no-cache';
}]);
