off topic but still bugging me

[Guest Bill]

I tried posting this on the IE NG without success. Doesn't seem to be much

activity over there. Anyone care to help me out??

 

Using IE6 on XP-P SP2. I'm being forced to download the pdf file instead of

just viewing it online. How do I change to be able to view pdf online??

Try changing the default program or action for PDF file type from:

1. Open Windows explorer -> Tools -> Folder Options -> File Types tab

2. locate PDF file type

 

Change the default program to Acrobat reader.

 

Alternatively, have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling Acrobat reader?

Its an option in Adobe Reader, "display pdf in browser"
