It's really a squid issue, not an Adobe issue, assuming that you're
viewing the .pdf in-browser via the Reader plugin (as opposed to
downloading, then opening)...
http://www.squid-cache.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=2639
The issue is that the Acrobat plugin requests multiple byte ranges of
the document in a single HTTP request, and if those ranges are out-of-
order or overlapping, squid sees the range argument as "too complex"
and throws it out.
This request is unorthodox, but legal per the HTTP spec, thus the bug
report.

Hi,
We have a problem using squid(ntlm auth)/dansguardian/squid
On a website when downloading a pdf file on a pc to save it on disk
no
problem at all.
On the same website, pdf file with the same pc, and through the
same proxy
when choosing open instead of save the pdf file downloads, blocks
at the end
of the file and after 5 mins opens the pdf.
On the same client/website/pdf but not using the proxy the pdf opens
immediately...
There are Acrobat's bugs on PDF openning through Squid.
Amos may show the details.
