Remove the plugin if you are using -stable, it's UNstable.  I
confirmed this with the port developer.  If you remove
/usr/X11R6/lib/browser_plugins/nppdf.so mozilla will revert to
launching acrobat as an external program, which works fine.

   Hi,

   I've been having this problem for some time, but for one reason or
   another never bothered to report it.  I found one instance on this
   list of someone else with the same problem, but I didn't see any
   responses.

   acroread runs on my computer without any problem whatsoever, but when
   it is loaded as a plugin in any mozilla-based browser, it stalls when
   the splash screen says "loading ewh.api."  My only recourse then is to
   kill the acroread process, at which point my browser begins to respond
   again, now with blank page.

   help?

   /brian
