I'm getting the same error. I'm using FF 3.5.1

I'm not sure, but I believe this is a problem this the content-type supplied by FF to the application and not CI. When I view the headers sent to my CI app, i'm getting

"application/pdf" <- with the quotes

In IE8, I get

application/pdf <- without the quotes

But if i'm uploading another type of document, IE. Word Document I get application/msword without the quotes.

This can be fixed by editing the mimeTypes.rdf file in your Mozilla profile folder and removing
Code:
<RDF:Description RDF:about="urn:mimetype:&quot;application/pdf&quot;"
                   NC:value="&quot;application/pdf&quot;"
                   NC:editable="true"
                   NC:fileExtensions="pdf"
                   NC:description="PDF Document">
    <NC:handlerProp RDF:resource="urn:mimetype:handler:&quot;application/pdf&quot;"/>
</RDF:Description>
I will file a bug report with CI (even thought technically this is not a CI bug) to filter out these mime-types that are submitted.
