If it ever happens to you, this is what you'll see: You will click on a PDF link in SM mail or browser, expecting it to open in a new tab (at least that's how my system is set up); instead you'll be given a solid grey screen that says "Check for updates... Click here to activate plugin." There are other reasons for this screen occasionally appearing (usually that acrobat.exe is hung up), but this time you'll be asked to update Acrobat. If you accept, you will find Acrobat Reader 11 to be installed in place of your full Acrobat plug-in. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
