    Reset IE to the defaults & go from there.

      You know what?  I followed Fed's suggestion and installed Firefox. It open that URL using Adobe Acrobat 7.0 immediately, in no time and without "hesitation".

      Question now is WHY IE COULDN'T?

        I never suggested Firefox, it's for girls.

        I'm sure you didn't reset all the IE defaults.

        Then I said

        I added *.navidadlae.terra.es to my trusted sites and it's all good.

        Your response

        I just put the *.navidadlae.terra.es as "allowed" in my private sites

        Help us to help you ;)

        No idea. I stopped using Internet Explorer a long time ago and I never spent much time thinking about its shortcomings.  ;)

          Sorry for the confussion, Fed.

          Well, even though I did what you suggest (resetting IE to the defaults) before asking for help in this forum, I did it now again.  Only thing I got is the option of dowmloading the file using DAP, and immediately afterwards I got what you can see in the attached screenshot.

          When using Firefox, it uses Adobe Acrobat 7 and show me the result in no time.

            It looks like Raptor left out one of the default settings.
            Below is the new revised list.
            I [highlight]highlighted[/highlight] the earlier missing one for you.
            Please try them with IE and tell me how it goes.

            1. Start
            2. Settings
            3. Control Panel
            4. Internet Options
            5. Security tab
            6. Reset all security zones to Default
             
            [highlight]1. Start
            2. Settings
            3. Control Panel
            4. Internet Options
            5. Privacy
            6. Restore Defaults button[/highlight]
             
            1. Start
            2. Settings
            3. Control Panel
            4. Internet Options
            5. Advanced
            6. Restore Defaults button

            You may need to do the following as well
              
            1. Start
            2. Settings
            3. Control Panel
            4. Internet Options
            5. General tab
            6. Remove cookies, temporary files and history


            No, that wasn't it. :-?

              OK, I just set all my options to the defaults and like you still couldn't access the site.
              The only way I can get there is to put *.navidadlae.terra.es into the trusted sites list.
              Now to find out why. :)

                Found it! [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]

                *.terra.es is in my Restricted Sites.

                For some reason it is the IE default.
