Ok... 'It wasn't recognized'... Does this mean that the plug-in didn't
get called in the browser? Or was it Reader that complained?
In the first case, did you send the file with the correct extension?
As Windows hides extension this can be difficult to establish.

I'd suggest to ask the Windows users to _download_ the file (right
click & save as...) then try to open it explicitly with Acrobat.
