The Version 4 Acrobat Reader sometimes has a Web Browser Integration issue, i.e. The web browser doesn't recognise that Acrobat Reader is meant to be used to view pdf type documents. The error, "Error Locating Object Handler - There is no viewer available for the type of object you are trying to open. The following information is available about the object: Address of object: http:// etc. etc. Content Type: application/pdf Possible location of viewer: Microsoft ActiveX Gallery Do you want to go to this location to download a viewer for this type of object?" (Figure 1).
