Try reinstalling or updating Adobe Reader.

Check these, all possible options: - Do you have Acrobat reader installed? - If yes: try reinstalling? (If no: you need it to view pdf files, get it from www.adobe.com) - Check file associations, maybe some program screwed up file associations and pdf is not assigned to reader anymore. - Check for spyware, sometimes mal and/or spyware can mess up your system. If none of these help: what do you mean by "and then stops", do you get any error messages? time-outs? Have you tried saving the file to your harddisk and then openning it? are you able to open up pdf's on your harddisk? Hope I could help some,you gave little information so I can only assume as to what might cause the problem.

There was a topic on the forum a while back about speeding up the Acrobat Reader process by moving some files and or plug-ins (don't exactly recall what). Did you by chance move those files? Might have to move them back to where they belong. I don't exactly remember which Forum it ws in, but try a search for the topic..

It could be regarding PDF plugins that you've moved into an optional folder in the Acrobat Reader installation directory. Usually reinstalling Acrobat Reader will solve the issue as it writes back all the plugins in the correct directory. Unless you know which plugin to restore, you then manually move that particular plugin back to the original directory. jlhaslip's comments should be refering to this thread.. http://www.trap17.com/forums/speed-up-acro...ing-t24772.html

Try saving the link to your desktop. If it is possible that helps me - You can download it o your desktop and then use your favourite PDF viewer to read it. I once was having trouble reading PDFs in my webbrowser and I updated the browser and all was fine. But if you download the PDF you can veiw it any time you want - Opening it up online just gives you the one time and once you navigate away - its gone

I would use Firefox and get the PDF plugin available at Mozilla update (www.mozilla.com/update) and run that. If that doesn't work, you could always download PDF's (Right Click > Save Target As) and use an external viewer.

Hey guys. Guess what? thats right, it is fixed. I tried re-intalling Adobe Acrobat Reader and now I can open PDF just fine. I am still not sure what the problem was but doing the re-install did the trick. Thanks everyone!

never buy, they may develop skills and abilities that would enable future revenue and loyalty. At
the same, time a third world nation can have more development as skilled and trained professionals
