hi all,
i have this issue of not being able to open pdf files in my IE7 and also in Firefox 3. the issue is that i have Acrobat professional and Acrobat reader 9.0 installed in my m/c. when ever i try to open pdf files, it tries to open in Acrobat Professional and then it pops up this msg and then stops.
