[pchelpers] Re: PDF problems at TechRepublic

Hi Ekhart, 

   Thanks for your email. I have occasional problems picking up PDF links and 
get an empty page instead, especially with certain financial institutions but 
other than that Firefox works well for pdf links.

Can you view PDF files at other links correctly in Firefox? Most Google
search results include many PDF links. Or if you type any word plus
"filetype:pdf" into Google (without the quotes) you get only PDF results.

These kind of normal links to PDF files work for me, but i get an empty 
Firefox page when i click on the link Nigel provided:

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
