You need Acrobat 4.0. The old viewer does not have the forms extension in
it. The server is configured for this mime type. It sends you a file to
download as index.fdf. Acrobat sees
this file and says hey I am the application for that (Ver 4.0). It spawns
acrobat reader, acrobat 4.0 opens the FDF file that was built from a
coldfusion query, and then populates the
form specified in the FDF with the data in the variable=value pairs found in
the fdf back in the browser window that originally spawned the fdf.  It
works everywhere I go while
testing it. . . ? Once again <cf_MaybeIAmStupid> ;-)
