149312 - Acrobat plug-in is never released, even when Mozilla is shutdown

Status: VERIFIED WONTFIX

(Core Graveyard :: Plug-ins, defect)

Description

[Sean Kendall Schneyer]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.0.0+)
Gecko/20020603
BuildID:    2002060308

AcroRd32.exe is launched as when a .pdf file is encountered. When the tab or
browser window that contains the displayed .pdf file is exited, the plug-in
should exit. However, AcroRd32.exe is still in the task list. In addition,
AcroRd32.exe is still loaded even after Mozilla is exited!

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make sure Acrobat plug-in is installed and working
2. Go to any .pdf file on the web
3. Exit Mozilla

Actual Results:  AcroRd32.exe is still an active process.

Expected Results:  AcroRd32.exe should be shut down once the plug-in is no
longer needed.

(I tried really hard to find a duplicate bug for this since I've been seeing
this for quite a long time. I was very surprised that I could not find a
duplicate, but I'm sure one probably exists.)
