Hello,

I'm using a Windows XP Pro SP2 box with IE7 & Acrobat 6 Pro.
When click on a link on a website to open a PDF, IE7 states it's done
opening it but nothing shows. I tested the link using another computer to
confirm the link works. Any ideas why this is happening?

Thanks....

Try uninstalling/reinstalling Adobe Acrobat. This program has caused me numerous problems in the past and
this is generally the solution.

Uninstall all versions of Adobe (Acrobat) Reader and then either install the
newest version from Adobe or install Foxit:
