FF4.0 wants to download a .asp page ratehr than open it. How do I change this behavior?

I am on a OSX 10.6.7. One example of the page that I want to open is at http://tinyurl.com/3moz8fk When I click on the link, FF downloads the page. When I enter the link in Safari, it opens as expected. I don't see anywhere that I can change the behavior of the .asp documents in order to open as expected.

That is a PDF (Adobe Reader) document.

I know that the doc is a PDF. Firefox isn't getting to the point of downloading the pdf, it thinks that it's supposed to d/l the ASP page.
