Thought I'd pass along the solution to this problem and what was causing it.  

This was on a Dell PC with IE5.5 & SP1, Windows & Office 2000 with AR5 

We had issues opening PDF's from the local INTRAnet site. The window to "OPEN" or "SAVE TO DISK" appeared 3 times and we couldn't figure out why.  

First window was "login from sweb01.html" Second window was "PDFfile.pdf" Third window was the same file but all lower case. 

First make sure to uncheck "display PDF in Browser". Second - uncheck "confirm after download" in Tools|folder options|file types|PDF Files. That gets it down to 2 windows. 

The final issue was the Autocomplete option in the Internet Options menu under the tab "content". Click on the "autocomplete" button and make sure all options are checked. The issue was that "FORMS" was not checked and for some reason after checking it the PDF file now opens on the first try.  

Hope that helps somebody.
