The initialisation vector (IV) is not a key. It is a sequence of random digits that are applied to the start of the encrypted document. This is because for certain documents there is a well known starting sequence and given the same key, they would all encrypt to the same value, so the first few bytes of the encrypted text of multiple documents using the same key would look the same. Crack one and you have the others. The IV scrambles the start of the document and becuase the encryption of block n+1 depends on how block n was encrypted it becomes exceedingly difficult to determine any repeated sections of the file.

The IV is known and you are free to transmit it in plaintext because even if an attacker gets hold of it they cannot do anything with it without the key. The IV should be different on each communication otherwise similar files will look similar when encrypted.

I don't know if this helps with your problem, but knowing a bit more about the IV may help you track down a solution more easily.
