I have an Advent 4489 netbook and an Acer 5920 laptop, both using Windows XP, Adobe Reader 9, Firefox 3.0.5 and Internet Explorer 7.

On the Netbook, it was using Adobe Reader 8.1.3 and PDF files loaded in both browsers fine. I then uninstalled that and installed FoxIt...that didn't work. I then installed Adobe Reader 9, and I was no longer able to view PDF documents in any browser.

In FireFox's applications settings, PDFs are set to run using adobe (default) and the tick box in Adobe > Edit > Preferences > Internet to display PDFs in the web browser is ticked.

Any ideas? Because I really need to view PDFs in my browser.
