    I am unable to view any of the PDF files I download on my PC
    Is this due to the fact that Mozilla Firefox is on the PC versus google
    What is the problem and how do I fix it
    Thank you

    It could be that you dont have this - http://get.adobe.com/uk/reader/ (there are alternatives.) install that then just save the .pdf and try open it with that.

    edit : you could check the add/remove programs list (Start, click Control Panel, and then double-click Add or Remove Programs) to see if it is already installed too.

    Were you able to view them before changing your browser?
    To be able to open adobe pdf files you need adobe reader it is a free download from adobe.com if you had it installed before then a reinstall may fix your problem. when downloading the adobe reader save it to your machine dont run it from the web that way you can run it again if needed with out having to download the whole thing again.

    If a reinstall does not work then try uninstalling it through control panel and then reboot your machine and do a fresh install.

    :D
