My problem is similar to Victor's. One rogue system currently in use (Win95) refuses to pull up a PDF file on the Web (IE). This using the Acrobat 5.0.5 reader.  

Instead, a (near) blank screen appears, with the usual IE border. The rest is white space. No error message.  

The same system works fine pulling up PDF files loaded on the hard drive, so the Acrobat appears to be working.  

The Web based PDF files that the rogue won't pull up do fine on the sister systems (same configuration). They are all loaded with Acrobat 5.0.5.  

I suspect there's a switch or option on Internet Explorer I'm overlooking. Any ideas? 

Thanks, 
George
