I just, reluctantly, upgraded from 6.0.5 to 7.0.8. I tried to open a URL that was a PDF file and both the popup window and the parent window closed. The forum suggest that having Reader open might work around this problem but I can't get that to work either. My only solution, which only works when the link is directly to a PDF, is to save the file and look at it locally. If it is a asp that links to a pdf then I am fubar.

Any solutions? I would willing go back to 6.0.5 but I can't find a link to the product.
