Another techie problem
 

Being a stupid computer phobe has it's downsides and this is one of them !
I just tried to look at the pdf that Uncle Mick put on General Chat about panopticons.... I click on open, it downloads file and then when I go to look at said file there is nothing in it ; the egg timer thing goes round as if its going to do something then it goes back to the previous screen.
Help.......

Thanks Mr D ! I have now installed Adobe acrobat and it works ! I got it from another site though as I didn't want to pay for it ! ;)
My old pc had it on and I just assumed this one did too ! ( Doh !)
Karma on way !

Re: Another techie problem
 

I'll give it a go then, as I know next to nothing about computers thought it best to ask rather than risk it, Thanks;)
