Check the pdf handler. If you are using acrobat, check acrobat settings & IE
addon settings.
Acrobat 7: Edit->Preferences->Internet->Display PDF in browser
IE6 SP2: Tools->Manage Addons->Addons that have been used by IE->Click
Adobe->Enable
If that doesn't work try:
IE6 SP2: Tools->Manage Addons->Addons that have been used by IE->Click
Adobe->Update ActiveX
