This link should open Adobe Acrobat which is the defined helper app in my Firefox but instead gives an error dialog, :- C:\Users\Ed\AppData\Local\Temp\OneFourFive.com-FoundationCourse145-2.pdf could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences. I was able to use 'save as' and download file and open it. I think the .com embedded, 'fooled' Firefox!
