IE does not display pdf files.

[wojtek]

Clicking on link pointing to pdf file only small icon is displayed.
If I save link on desktop, I can open it with Adobe Reader.
Unfortunatelly sometimes web page does not allow save linked document.
I check all security IE options I don't see anything wrong.
Please help.

Check in Internet Options - Programs page, click Manage Addons, and make
sure the one for Acrobat reader is present and enabled. If not present
you will probably need to reinstall the reader
