I wonder if others are experiencing similar problems, or have ideas on how to resolve this:

I'm running SM 2.8 on a Macintosh (OSX 10.6.8, Snow Leopard), and more precisely: Build identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:11.0) Gecko/20120312 Firefox/11.0 SeaMonkey/2.8

For a long time (multiple releases), PDFs have never presented inside SeaMonkey - despite installing Adobe's standard collection of plug-ins. Instead, SeaMonkey always treated PDFs by opening them in a helper application - in my case, set to Apple's "Preview."

Since the last Adobe updater, SeaMonkey seems to try to open PDFs inside a browser window, but they don't actually open - I just get a blank white page. It doesn't seem to matter how I set the preferences for helper applications - the default is listed as Adobe Reader, the other choices are Preview and Adobe NPAPI plug-in. No matter what the setting, SeaMonkey tries to open the file in a browser window, and fails - I can't seem to get it to revert to it's previous behavior of giving a choice to save or open in Preview.

Note that the plug-in seems to work fine in Safari, but also fails in Firefox.

Any thoughts, suggestions?

Thanks,

Miles Fidelman
