Acrobat PDF Question

In the past I've been able to pull up pdfs on my site by just typing in the url ...........test.pdf. Now when I try to do this, I get a warning about some files may be potentially unsafe etc. This happens on a PC in IE. I click the open button in the alert box and it won't open my file. If I put a link on my site to that pdf, then it opens fine in Acrobat Reader. Anybody else now having this problem? Any solutions so my visitors can type the url into the browser and open the pdf? Looks like Microsoft updated some IE code?

Thanks,
Kevin

Sounds like your anti-virus software or firewall kicking in and showing the warning message, kevin. There has been no such change in any MS code.

PS. You should edit your post to remove the personal URL ;)
