Found the reason - I have recently updated Adobe Reader to 9.3.4 so I
took a look at Prefs.
Under Internet is an option to "Display PDF in browser using:" and
some Adobe Reader choices if you have more than one version.
To the left is a tick box to stop Reader displaying the PDF in the
browser.
After restarting Safari all is back to the previous state - Safari
downloads the PDF rather than displaying it.

Subject: Safari 4.1.1 displays PDFs
Hi all
This problem has recently appeared - Safari displays PDFs on screen
instead of downloading the file, which I prefer.
I have reset the option NOT to do this in Onyx but it still happens.
I know it is trivial to load in Safari and then save the PDF but it
should not happen.
I am not sure if it had anything to do with the update from Safari
4.1 to 4.1.1 - it may have but I have not opened a PDF at the
right time to say so.
Any ideas, is there another program/method I can use to make Safari
download PDFs?
Regards
Gerry
