This seems to work for me, and you can avoid to uninstall Reader 9 (drawn from another thread in this forum):
- open Adobe Reader 9;
- go to Edit > Preferences > Internet
- deselect "Show pdf in browser".
Now every time you click on a pdf link in an IE page you will be prompted either to read (with Reader, not inside IE) or to save the pdf file.
HTH.
