In Adobe Reader 9,
 
  • Go to Edit
  • Then Preferences
  • In the left hand window, choose Internet.
  • Under Web Browser Options on the right, make sure the box "Display PDF in browser" is checked.
You will need to close all IE 8 windows after making this change in Adobe Reader 9.  Restart IE 8 and try to open a PDF.
If you continue to have problems, please contact the OIT Helpdesk at (865) 974-9900.
