    I had this same problem. Thanks to Danilo, this was a great help.

    I also found a document on the Adobe site that explains how to set up the
    Acrobat Reader plugin to work with Netscape (ok, the document is for
    Netscape 4.x, but it worked for Netscape 7, although I skipped the part
    starting with "To change Netscape's preferences"):
    http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/2e446.htm

    Is there a (better?) place to find this information? (WARNING - POSSIBLE
    IGNORANT QUESTION FROM NEWBIE) Why doesn't Acrobat reader's installation
    program take care of this plugin stuff automatically?

    Finally, the plugin is working for me. However, Netscape always opens a
    separate window to spawn the plugin and display the PDF file. Is there a
    way for me to change this behavior so that the PDF file displays in the
    current window rather than spawning a new window?

    Thanks and Best Regards,
