My guess: This is a special kind of PDF that must be viewed in Acrobat/Reader. BUT, you are trying to view it in a web browser, email app, or other thing not from Adobe.
Solution:
1. Download this file to your desktop. (It is a file, NOT an error message, and can be downloaded as usual).
2. Start Acrobat Reader.
3. Use File > Open to open the file you just downloaded.
Get ready! An upgraded Adobe Community experience is coming in January.
