Have you tried foxit for a reader instead of adobe?

I do not have a problem in firefox viewing pdf's.

Good luck troubleshooting your issue.

Thanks, but Foxit has been the Reader I'm using.

BTW: In Internet Explorer it works.

I'm becoming increasingly dissatisfied with Firefox. I keep getting error messages that I have to reload, crappy loadtime on videos and frequent 'not responding' moments. I use to use Chrome but switched back but now I think I'm going back to Chrome.

Ive seen people saying you shoud tell firefox to open it in foxit, but not in firefox, cause that gobbles up resources
