With some websites (eg the EU Court of Justice) I can't either open or download the pdfs of court judgments - why is this and how do I get things to work?

I have Firefox 4.0.1. Most of the time I can open or download pdfs supplied by business sites without any problem. But sometimes (eg with the EU Court of Justice website) I can no longer do this. I say "no longer" because I could do it with earlier versions of Firefox. The only way I can now get at the EU Court of Justice pdfs and other unobtainable pdfs is to fire up Internet Explorer, which seems a bit silly. How can I get Firefox 4.0.1 to open up / download these pdfs?
