When I click a link for a PDF file in SeaMonkey 2.1 a new tab opens with

Foxit or Adobe Reader set as my default PDF reader.
SeaMonkey 2.1 with Adobe Reader 10.1.0 on Windows XP SP3.
No problem.
If the link does not force a new tab or window and I do not middle-click
to create a new tab, the PDF file opens in the existing tab. For a
short while, I get a blank screen with an ugly, large progress bar
(black frame with blue progress). When the document is open and
displayed, an Adobe Reader toolbar is superimposed over the window; this
is easily and quickly dismissed.
I suggest you check your Adobe Reader preferences and then you SeaMonkey
preferences.
Using the same OS and SeaMonkey& Adobe Reader versions, I just get a
blank tab. I don't see any SeaMonkey preferences that should be
relevant. SeaMonkey already is set to use the default PDF reader. PDF
attachments to e-mails also try to open in a browser tab but only
produce a blank tab.
Are you able to view a local PDF document that is on your own hard drive?
I've been seeing the same behavior. I have to download the PDF to my
hard drive and open it from there (yes, that works) because it seems to
refuse to open in Seamonkey. This was not a problem with 2.0.14.
Another work-around is switching to the IE rendering engine via IETab.
Something in the new Seamonkey is "broken."
I see this at home with XP SP3, and Acrobat X and at the office with XP
SP3 and Acrobat 9.
