I use and recommend Zotero: https://www.zotero.org/ , I think it meets all of your requirements. It was originally a firefox extension but now runs standalone and will interface with most browsers.
It will automatically obtain the bibliographical information and save the pdf from most journal web sites, and interfaces nicely with word / openoffice to generate citations / bibliographies (and will export to bibtex if you prefer) You can attach notes to your entries (I use this to write my article summaries) You can search your articles (including the full text if you like, it extracts it using pdftotext) It is open source and runs on linux, osx and windows. It will also sync across different computers, and if you like you can share your library (but not the pdfs) online via the zotero web site.
