Is WinXP SP2 installed on the problem machine?

Have you considered upgrading to Acrobat Reader v7.0.1?

I am using Win XP Pro, Acrobat 5.0 and IE 6.0. I am having frequent hangups when browsing and have so far determined the following:
When I click on this PDF link the system stops responding. Ctrl-alt-del
shows the page not responding. The link is:
http://www.castawayrestaurant.com/pdf/01_brunch.pdf.
Note: I have a second "identical" system that works fine with the same web
page. It opens the link in Adobe as expected.
More info: I tried a page with this pdf link and it work properly!
ftp://ftp.linksys.com/data***/wrt54gx-ds.pdf
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Even more info!! If I click the link in this message adobe successfully opens the file. Thus, adobe opens the link but not within IE?
