I thought some of you computer savvy riders out there might be able to help me out with a little problem I have here with my home PC. I have Internet Explorer 6 or whatever it is....but when I click on links to PDF Files I can't get them to show....all I get is the page with that little image icon thingy in the upper left window...but no file.

I have Adobe Acrobat on my computer....but it doesn't seem to be linking up with IE......pissing me off since I can't view the back issues of singletracks, I can't get spec sheets on bikes, I can't get the Answer owners manuals etc. etc. >:(

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks in advance.

Ditch the IE and get Mozilla. Free download at http://www.mozilla.org/

Dino,

Tell me more about Mozilla....will it solve my PDF viewing problem?

If it works well, I'm all for ignoring the IE!

Thanks.

I started having problems with IE 6 freezing up on me on certain sites. PC Mag has been touting Mozilla for a while.
