    Have you tried saving it somewhere first, say to your desktop, then opening from there?

    By selecting Open, the file should download and open in Adobe Reader (or other PDF Viewer) without you doing anything. It sounds to me like the download window is opening, but you are not allowing the download to complete before selecting the file to open.
