Default Problems with some PDF files?

Some of the PDF files for the application do not work, anyone else having this problem? For example:

Are you referring to that silly 'please wait' message (that is very common)? If so, then that's an easy solution.

1. Click anywhere on the PDF part of the screen, which will display the PDF 'drop menu'

2. Click on the 'Save As' icon (the one on the far right)

3. Save the PDF to a local drive on your PC

4. Close the browser, and open your local copy of the file directly in Adobe - voila!

Same solution as described in the wiki pages here: http://britishexpats.com/wiki/Spousa...at_can_I_do.3F
