Default When I click on a PDF...

When I click on a PDF on a website (on my home PC) instead of opening the file to view, it automatically is downloaded to desktop. How can I correct this?

What happens if you right click on the link and select "open in new window"?

It still downloads the PDF to desktop. Same if I open in a new tab. You're a Sheriff - help!

Fred,

Seems to be resolved, many thanks.
A combination of your link and Mozilla's latest update - most odd!

However - we have CLOSURE!

Thanks

Peter
