I have been using Acrobat reader 9 with Seamonkey for a while with no

Acrobat 10 reader. I am having two major issues and am not sure if
it is
me, Seamonkey or Acrobat. Since Seamonkey and Acrobat have a long
history of not playing well together. I am wondering if anyone else has
seen these issues. I am on Windows XP SPIII.
1) If I load an acrobat document in Seamonkey and save it all works
well. If I try to save a second Acrobat document seamonkey and acrobat
both lock up requiring a force shutdown in the task manager.
2) Acrobat 10 has a new look where there is a "hidden" pop up
utility at
the bottom to control the page. There is also an more complete control
bar at the top of the page. This control bar only occasionally shows
up.
There is no way to zoom to page size or search a document without this
bar and hence when it doesn't show it is annoying.
Thanx

I tried Acrobat 10 and I did not liked it.
I dont remember why but I dont care
I prefer not viewing pdf in browser window's so I set it to launch
separately.
I reverted to Acrobat 9 and turned off auto updates.
I decided to wait for positive comments on Acrobat 10 and it is not yet
the case.
Bad idea turning off auto updates, as you won't get the various security
fixes Adobe releases for their software (leaving you vulnerable to all
the attacks on PDF documents in the wild). Auto-update won't install a
new version of Acrobat against your wishes, but it WILL keep your
current version up to date.
And this is exactly why reverting back to Acrobat 9 (as everyone
suggested) is not a good idea either. About a year ago the place I work
was getting hammered bad by virus even in well educated computer users.
The culprit was exploits in advertisements that exploited acrobat bugs.
Seamonkey be darned I still got hit myself since I had the acrobat plug
in. The only way around it I know is to disable the acrobat plug in and
only use the application to manually read acrobats, but as an engineer
who reads data sheets all day that is a PITA.
thanks for warning
I did a google search on "pdf exploit"
is that about the problems you had ?
by the way I hate the way of adding active material inside pdfs they
should remain a passive way of presenting documents ready to print and
no more.
