JRS,
Interesting. Foxit had been go good and quiet for so long, I never
thought to suspect Foxit. I still find FireFox's under the hood
navigation confusing and frustrating. I'm still learning. I spent ~3hrs
this AM at the Foxit forums. Hmm...... Seems Foxit may be having some
growth issues too. Win7 seems to be causing lots of issues for everyone.
Not surprising ATM.
About the "plugin thing," I don't even recall seeing the FF plugin until
recently. The first one I recall was in late V3 and just took it as
normal and necessary. Yes, the "plugin" for FF seems to be an issue.
I'll just be patient and watch developments.
Thanks,
Duncan

I would blame Foxit Reader. Been using FF for years with no issues.. :)
I did in fact find some posts on the Foxit Website forum about FFand the Foxit
plugins not working right that you might want to read thru..

Subject: [H] Firefox question
Run Firefox v3.6.6. Recently updated Foxit Reader to v4.0.0.0619. I did also
pick the Firefox Plugin also.
I so so really like Foxit Reader!
Again, I am stuck trying to drive Firefox. Now when I try and read/download a
PDF doc, Firefox pops up windows telling me something is broken with my
"permissions" but does not give a clue WHERE I need to go and fix whatever. I'd
be happy to fix whatever if I had a clue WHERE. Confused I am. Clues are
welcome. Generally, I leave FF pretty much alone.
When I open the FF browser and go to Tools/Options/Applications I now see TWO
instances of "Foxit Reader Document (application/...". This field I can not
expand?
The top one I have set to 'Use Foxit Reader Plugin for Mozill...'.
The next (lower) one I have set to 'Always ask'.
Why would I have TWO of the same Content Type?
How do I remove/delete what appears to be a duplicate Content Type.
Mozilla Help has not been friendly here...... :(
Best,
Duncan
