I have an issue with a machine that does not give me to option to open a pdf when clicking on a link or and email pdf. I have uninstalled/reinstalled the reader and uninstalled IE7 and all the other tricks and tips generally associated with this issue, nothing seems to work in IE though. Firefox opens the pdf straight away. The machine is obviously Windows, XP Pro, SP3 as are the other machines in the office, it's just this one and it just would be the bosses machine wouldn't it. Any input would be grately received, many thanks.

When you were troubleshooting did you check in Acrobat's preferences to make sure there was a check in the box to open PDFs in browser? Thanks.

Yes I did, it does work with Firefox. There must be something in IE I guess stopping it, the open option is not even listed. Thanks for your input though.

I think I remember seeing there is a separate plug-in just for Firefox, since Acrobat has the full integration with IE. I have so many browser issues because I run multiple versions that I don't even want to try to help, unfortunately. Keep googling though, the IE issue is fairly common, you will find the solution that works for you.
