I do ***NOT*** want PDFs displayed in my browser.

I ***DO*** want PDFs displayed in a separate Acrobat window.

Version 7.0.9 was working this way until the update to 7.1.0 went in today.

Now, regardless of the of the setting of the Edit --> Preferences --> Internet --> Web Browser Options --> "Display PDF in browser" checkbox, all PDFs ARE being displayed in the browser window.

How do I disable this behavior or uninstall this last update?

I have managed to fix my problem with PDFs only opening in the browser.
I went to MSIE(v7) Menu --> Tools --> Manage Add-Ons --> Enable or Disable Add-Ons... --> Add-ons that have been used by Internet Explorer --> [find/highlight the line with file = AcroIEHelper.dll] --> Disable --> OK --> Restart the browser (and maybe the PC).
