(Plugins Graveyard :: PDF (Adobe), defect)

Description

[yeren]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; de; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; de; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3

Firefox crashes when displaying a pdf using the acrobat plugin.
- when displaying the pdf in a frame ("show pdf in browser" activated in reader or acrobat or both) 
- when displayi8ng the pdf in a separate window ("show pdf in browser" deactivated)

plugin version: 9.3.2.163

Workaround: deactivate the plugin

Further Notes:
- The pdf is displayed before Firefox crashes
- the problem is not present on all systems:
   o 3 systems at home (2 running Win7, one running XP) don't have this problem
   o 2 systems at work (1 running XP, one running Win7) show this problem
   o our IT department states that nearly all computers in the company have this problem
- if the problem exists, it is the same with internet explorer (verion 8, only the pdf tab/window crashes) and google chrome (only the pdf tab/window crashes) 
- 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. activate acrobat plugin
2. go to a website with pdfs (e.g. sciencedirect.com, espacenet.com)
3. click a link to a pdf
-> wait for display and crash..
Actual Results:  
see above

Expected Results:  
show pdf in frame or separated window and _not_ crash

see also communication in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=536974

What makes this bug so annoying is the combination of
- the pdf being displayed before the crash
- the workaround seriously complicating work on pages that rely heavily on "in-line" pdf display (like espacenet.com)

Use the PDF Viewer. See https://support.mozilla.org/kb/view-pdf-files-firefox-without-downloading-them

What version are you using? 
Is this still happening when updating to the newest Acrobat Reader versions?
Can you provide current crash report ids for this? (bp-xxxxx from about:crashes)

Closing old bugs in the Plugins component. We aren't going to track issues in 3rd-party plugins in the Mozilla bug tracker. In addition, support for NPAPI plugins will be removed at the end of this year; for more details see the post at https://blog.mozilla.org/futurereleases/2015/10/08/npapi-plugins-in-firefox/

If there is a serious bug in Firefox, it needs to be filed in the "Core" product, "Plug-Ins" component.
