PDF Viewer Crashes My Browser
I've been trying to download the clarinet parts for the Gilbert and Sullivan operetta "The Pirates of Penzance." When I select the file, the PDF viewer will only display the first two pages of the document, and when I move to the second page, Internet Explorer 9 freezes up and requires the Windows 7 task manager to close it. I've tried other parts in the same archive and have gotten the same result, but it doesn't seem to be happening if I open an archive for another composition. This problem did not exist less than two months ago when I first tried to download this material. Any help that anyone can offer would be appreciated.
Re: PDF Viewer Crashes My Browser
Internet Explorer has been known to balk at the prospect of downloading files from IMSLP. I would either:
a. Try a better browser (Chrome, Firefox, Opera, etc.), or
b. Try to save the file to your hard drive and open it outside of IE
Hopefully one of those should fix the problem.

I tried saving the file to the hard drive, but clicking the save button on the PDF window did not work. I'll try another browser.
Thanks!
Thanks!
