You are right, the original URL is no longer valid.
I've just tried with a local copy I had, and I still get the "Weird info"
message from Evince.
I'll have to check that I'm using the correct password, but I'm quite sure I
am.

I've put up a temporary copy of the file at:
http://matracas.org/tmp/Handout%20Management%20und%20Rechnungswesen%20WS%202009_2010.pdf

This is what happens when I start Evince from the command line:

00:02:34 ~$ evince /tmp/Handout\ Management\ und\ Rechnungswesen\ WS\
2009_2010.pdf 
Error: Weird encryption info
Error: Incorrect password

Please note that it says "Incorrect password" even before I've typed anything
in the "Enter password" dialog.
When I enter the password, I get again those two messages and the dialog comes
up again.

I just tried again with acroread, gave the password, and it works.
