I'm using the Adobe Customization Wizard 9 to create a package I will deploy through AD or Altiris. I'm having the same problem were it won't open a PDF in the browser. I know the simple fix of uncheck/check the 'Display PDF in Browser', that won't work for my enterprise deployment. I found the following registry keys and they "seem" to work. Does anyone know if they will interfere with any installed versions of Acrobat Std/Pro? Is there any better fix? Has adobe got involved yet? I do not have a service contract so I can't ask them? Thanks for the help.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\acrobat\Default Icon]
@="C:\\Program Files\\Adobe\\Reader 9.0\\Reader\\AcroRd32.exe"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\acrobat\shell\open\command]
@="C:\\Program Files\\Adobe\\Reader 9.0\\Reader\\AcroRd32.exe /u \"%1\""

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat\Exe]
@="\"C:\\Program Files\\Adobe\\Reader 9.0\\Reader\\AcroRd32.exe\""
