I recently installed Firefox 3.6.13 on brand new Dell Vostro with Win7 Pro. Whenever I try to download/open PDF docs, I get a blank screen.

The same docs open on IE8 just fine. Also, the same docs open fine on my other laptop with Firefox on XP Pro.

I have experienced this problem every time, on multiple web sites -- just can not open the pdf docs/web pages.

What gives.
