Same problem here. It took me a while, but I got it to work. Changing on how the content type would be handled did it for me. Check the image here: <http://kb.mozillazine.org/Image>:Fx3Applications.png I needed to change the entry for 'PDF Document'. I set it to the top option. Doing this and testing it right away yielded in a crash. After restarting firefox the problems were gone. More info on the image above: <http://kb.mozillazine.org/Adobe_Reader> My guess is that the Adobe reader couldn't handle the fact that firefox hadn't downloaded the document yet, but was still trying to get it to open.
