I look at a lot of .pdfs (Journal Articles) in my browse. Generally, I only download a fraction of the ones I look at. Recently, Firefox has stopped opening .pdfs in the same window/tab. Instead, it prompts me to download every .pdf I want to look at. I then have to save them, open them on my desktop, look at them, and then delete the ones I do not want to keep. Does anyone know how to get Firefox 10.0.2 to start opening .pdfs in the same window/tab again?

Adobe PDF Reader is not on your list of Plug-ins submitted with your question (click on "More system details" to the right of your original question). If it is disabled on the Plug-ins list (Add-ons > Plugins), click "Enable". If it is not installed on your system (in your Programs folder), then download the installer and run the installer after it is saved to your hard drive (install with Firefox closed).
