Hi,

After updating with Service Pack 2, PDFs files just won't
open in IE. I have to get round this prob by saving the
files and then opening them in Adobe Reader. It's kinda
frustrating. SP2 is giving more probs than before

I know there are already some threads on this topic. I've
been to sites like
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=305153
or http://www.colba.net/~hlebo49/files.htm
But the solutions offered are just not working.

Does anybody have better ideas?

As you don't have IE5.5 this may be a futile place to post.

IE6 newsgroups.
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6.browser
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6.setup

You might also try the Windows Update group or one of the XP groups.
