SeaMonkey 2.1 with Adobe Reader 10.1.0 on Windows XP SP3.

No problem.

If the link does not force a new tab or window and I do not
middle-click
to create a new tab, the PDF file opens in the existing tab. For a
short while, I get a blank screen with an ugly, large progress bar
(black frame with blue progress). When the document is open and
displayed, an Adobe Reader toolbar is superimposed over the window;
this
is easily and quickly dismissed.

I suggest you check your Adobe Reader preferences and then you
SeaMonkey
preferences.

Using the same OS and SeaMonkey& Adobe Reader versions, I just get a
blank tab. I don't see any SeaMonkey preferences that should be
relevant. SeaMonkey already is set to use the default PDF reader. PDF
attachments to e-mails also try to open in a browser tab but only
produce a blank tab.

What about Adobe Reader (not SeaMonkey) preferences?

Open Adobe Reader. You do not need a PDF file open; just launch the
Reader itself. On the Reader menu bar (not SeaMonkey), go to [Edit>
Preferences]. On Adobe's Preferences window, along the left side under
Categories, select Internet. Are the first two checkboxes checked?
Have you set the correct "Connection speed"?

Without having made any changes, one PDF did display normally in the
browser today, though another that was an e-mail attachment gave the
same blank tab. The Adobe preferences Internet checkboxes were checked.
I did adjust the connection speed to account for my cable connection,
though I doubt that was relevant to the problem. I have had NoScript
installed long before the PDF problem appeared, but might its new
version be causing the problem? Are those who are having a similar
problem also using NoScript?

I can confirm that I am seeing the problem, and I do not have the NoScript extension installed.
