Going from Adobe Acrobat (any version) to Adobe Reader (any version) is a major downgrade. Philip Taylor You can replace the reader without affecting the rest of the product.

I think that's a plugincheck bug, it doesn't really know the difference between Acrobat and the Reader. Since your Acrobat is fully patched, you are probably fine. Anyway, you *could* install Reader 11.x in parallel to Acrobat, and use Reader as a browser plugin leaving Acrobat only for editing. I don't know if that actually gives any enhanced security, though. Myself, I decided a long time ago to disable the PDF plugin. I prefer downloading my PDFs in full and opening them locally. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.

Or can I just update the plugin? TIA Not really answering your question, but why do you think going from 10.x to 11.x is a downgrade? The current level of the Reader for Linux is 9.x and I'd hope a plugin check could recognise that a current 'older level' is ok. Maybe it can't. Anyway - 11.x levels work fine (for me) under Windows. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
