I have observed the problem with both Debian and Ubuntu. When visiting
http://web.mate.polimi.it/viste/studenti/pagina_docente5.php?id=171&id_insegnamento=329
clicking any PDF leads to a dialog that offers only to "save" file. When
I disable libmozgnome.so (with
sudo chmod 0 /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9/libmozgnome.so
) I get the (expected) dialog offering either to save the or to view it
using my favorite application for PDF.

This is a problem I did not have time to report earlier but that
appeared with FF3.0.

Thanks,

     They are quite big, I took the initiative to gzip them...
  I've done two: one "normal" (which makes the "save as" dialog appear),
  named log.with-libmozgnome.gz, the other one with disabled
  libmozgnome.so named log.without-libmozgnome.gz

Seeing the log, I'm actually more shocked that it shows you an
application without libmozgnome, because the mime type is
application/octet-stream.

Anyways, I'll take a closer look at what happens.

BTW, could you give a url for such a pdf ?

Also, can you verify that it works as expected with
http://kvm.qumranet.com/kvmwiki/KvmForum2008?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=kdf2008_1.pdf
?

     Shock is in the eye of the beholder ? Could it be that the
  filename ends in .pdf ?

     Anyone of the first three PDFs of

http://web.mate.polimi.it/viste/studenti/pagina_docente.php?id=171&id_insegnamento=329

  will show the problem.

     Yes, it does work as expected.
