I think so, AFAIK, ms products run pdf's without challenge. I have acrobat 5
and it opens fully when I click a pdf file. I use pdf's quite a bit and it
concerns me that if this gets more work and wider spread that anyone with
acrobat will be extremely vulnerable to a system attack. Also that its
possible that with more work that even on the linux side someone could get
code to execute when the plugin is run to open the pdf file.
