When I download a PDF now, it saves to a file ok, but when I try to open it, a pop-up says that it isn't a PDF or a reconized file in Adobe. The file extension is .pdf. Thanks

I doubt if that is a Firefox issue.

What does Windows say about those files when you right-click the file and select Properties? Does that happen with all PDF files? Or just some from a particular source?

Those files may have been created by a different PDF program and may not be fully compatible with Adobe Reader. Or those PDF files may be corrupt in some manner.

Same problem, DL'ing PDF files from a secure source results in zero-byte files that are (obviously) corrupt. See pix. I really need a copy of my tax return to print...
