Thank you Natasha: at last, the perfect solution. I have IE7 and have just downloaded Acrobat 8, hoping pdf files would work again. They didn't crash any longer but nor did they work! But following Natasha's advice:

go into Adobe Reader
open 'edit' tab
open 'preferences'
select 'Internet' from list on left
UNCHECK "display PDF in browser"
...it re-configures quickly and then it works again !!

pdf files again up and running. An immense frustration now solved!
