Brings up a question: In my case (Firefox) most PDF show up right in the browser, some others randomly go the download path. What gives? It seems pretty much willy-nilly.
Same here. However, I have a partial fix for Firefox. See:
<http://www.pdfdownload.org>
It gives quite a bit of control over what to do with a PDF.

Also, in Firfox, make sure the default download action is to ask
what to do next, not dump it in the default download dumpster folder.

Tools -> Options -> Main -> Always ask me where to dump files.

I've got that checked. But it sometimes, maybe 5% of cases, decides to open in Acrobat and not in Firefox. That's usually when things crash since Acrobat is the SW that crashes the most here in the office, by far.

Aha! You need to configure Firefox to use Adobe Reader to open PDF's.


I don't like Adobe products. Too many crashes. Heck, I don't even like adobe brick. We have that all around the yard and it crumbles.


Thanks anyway, Jim, even if you ARE one step to the right of Attila the Hun {;-)
Then he'd have to be a lifetime NRA member :-)
Lifetime regular membership is $1,000. However, they offer a 65+
senior discount which reduces it to $375. Since regular membership is
$35/hr, if one is over 65, and plans on living past 75, then lifetime
membership might be a good investment.

But there will come a point where you can't hold the rifle steady anymore ;-)

Want to try your luck? It was WV (and KY) c'untry boys who were
chosen for sniper duty in 'Nam. Climb a tree with a silenced rifle
and pick 'em off at 1000 yards ;-)


I am too old for that, mainly the climbing part. My basic training happened a long time ago but the first words from our drill sergeant still ring in my ears. "ATTEEEEEN ... SHUN! This ain't gonna be a cake walk. As civilians you came, as men you will leave. Do you understand?" .... "Yes, Sir." ... "I CANNOT HEAR YOU!" ... "YESSS, SAH!"
