Workaround

Re-define the spatial reference of the GeoTIFF in ArcGIS 9.3.Workaround does not work for some users. Additional step of renaming the file in ArcCatalog after having edited the Spatial Reference in the properties of the raster had to be taken for ArcMap to read the World Mercator projection.
