Because SP2 for Internet Explorer 6 locked down the browser, to run 
browser-based content from CD-ROMs and hard drives that requires JavaScript 
and ActiveX components (such as the Adobe Reader), it has become necessary 
to provide instructions for drilling down in IE's advanced settings to allow 
active content to run locally or to add the "Mark of the Web" (eg, "<!--  
saved from url=(0014)about:internet -->") to the HTML. To get PDFs to open 
locally within IE is impossible with the Mark of the Web unless you embed 
the PDF files in a "marked" HTML page. Any of the following works with 
Acrobat Reader 5 and 6:

<object classid="clsid:CA8A9780-280D-11CF-A24D-444553540000" width="100%" 
height="100%"><param name="src" value="myfile.pdf" /></object>


<object type="application/pdf" width="100%" height="100%"><param name="src" 
value="myfile.pdf" /></object>



<embed src=" myfile.pdf" height="100%" width="100%"></embed>



But recently I've found that if Adobe Reader 7 is installed, such a page 
yields the error message "File does not begin with '%PDF-'." The PDFs all 
begin with "PDF." The class ID for 7's ActiveX component is still the same. 
What gives? Does Adobe Reader 7 require a different procedure, or does it, 
unlike its predecessors, not permit the embedding of PDFs?
