I received the attached message about two weeks ago after being unable to open a simple pdf
from a company.
I unstalled Foxit and installed the latest Acrobat Reader (AR DC?) -- same thing.
Just now I tried to open a pdf of a major software purchase and got the same message.
I've tried various ways to "fix" this, no success. This is very bizarre and frustrating. Your help, please.

Have you tried right-clicking the link for the .pdf file and Save the file to your HDD? Have you tried downloading on a different computer and Save to a USB Thumb/Flash drive?

I'm sitting in front of the monitor trying to figure out how I can adequately thank you, dear Berton. I right clicked and the pdf opened. You have smart brains. ellenc
