Adobe Reader Question

A while ago, my Adobe Reader stopped displaying a pdf file when I click on it on the internet; it just displays a blank page. I have searched and looked at many websites to find out what to do, but didn't have any success. Can anybody help?

Go into your configuration for Adobe (depends on the version where you'd access the setting) and disable the "Display pdf in browser." Then, Adobe will open up its own instance rather than attempting to open in the browser window.
Life is more painless for those who are brainless.

Thanks for your replies. I did disable "Display PDF in browser" last week but it didn't help. Uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe, which seems to work ok now, but it installed an earlier version, probably because I'm running Windows ME. If I run into any more problems, I will install Foxit.
