Why do I get garbled characters when I download a PDF file from a third party server?

When I click on the PDF link or if I right click to "Save Target As..." I get a redirect on Chrome and it opens a jumbled mess of characters Or Adobe Reader gives the error message "Adobe Reader could not open 'download' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)." I have updated to the latest version and still get this mess. Is it as the error message says, "...wasn't correctly decoded"...really? from 4 or 5 different, unrelated websites? or would it be something on my computer? even though I have the latest version of Adobe Reader? But when I get a PDF file attached to an email, there's no problem.
