Possibly you have the Adobe Acrobat Plug-in installed?  My recollection is 
that even if you uncheck "Display PDF in Browser" in Acrobat, the plug-in 
will nevertheless interfere with what happens when a PDF link is clicked.

On Seamonkey 2 I guess we will be able to just disable the plug-in.

Getting rid of it in Seamonkey 1.x isn't so easy.  You have to disable
plug-in scanning _and_ make sure the DLL is removed from the install
directory:
