I receive emails that have links to pdf documents, and Firefox on my imac does not open the links. This is true of this one: http://shopbonton.com/a/hBQ5C9UB8PILmB8v9I0Nsi65l6U/coupon and other links such as utility billing statements etc. I believe that I must have something set incorrectly, because the computer does not respond to the link at all.

Neither of the suggestions has helped. I am still missing something. The browser just sits idle.

Disable the Adobe Reader plugin in Firefox (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) and use the external Adobe Reader application or Preview application instead.

PDF files may also be found under another entry like Portable document.

I have made the changes recommended (use external Adobe Reader), and am able to open many of the files that I was previously unable to read. However, the specific URL referenced in my complaint still fails to open. It seems that the browser does not even attempt to find the url.
