Hi,
Although some Microsoft staff may lurk on these groups, this is not an
official Microsoft forum.
To the second of your questions, I too have the same problem and can
offer you two workarounds, neither of which is a fix, but will allow
you to open the files until either Microsoft or Adobe do something
about it.
1) In Acrobat, Edit, Preferences, Internet, Clear the box "Display PDF
in browser". This will force all PDF downloads to open in a separate
Acrobat window.
or else
2) Add sites from which you download PDFs to your Trusted Sites in
Internet Explorer. Tools, Internet Options, Security, Trusted Sites,
Sites. Then add each of the sites which have pdf files. Note - you can
use wildcards to add the sites, for example *.adobe.com. Note also that
this option is a calculated security risk. Don't add sites you don't
trust!
I have no idea why this second workaround works - it just does.
