Compiled fix for web browser pdf opening with Adobe Reader 9: It was published above along with other registry keys, but seems that just one of them is missing after installation of AR9 (we used GPO method with Customization Wizard 9) Windows XP x64 * ** start Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat\Exe] @="\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Adobe\\Reader 9.0\\Reader\\AcroRd32.exe\"" * ** end Windows XP/2000 * ** start Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat\Exe] @="\"C:\\Program Files\\Adobe\\Reader 9.0\\Reader\\AcroRd32.exe\"" * ** end Tested to work with both IE7 and FF3. After applying this registry patch you need to close browser windows. Not sure if one can distribute registry patch over GPO, but i'm simply using regedit over network to import it to about 40 workstations... still not gonna help those guys managing thousands... have fun people!
