The Problem is, when I open a PDF in Firefox 4 (with the Adobe Reader 10 Plug-In) you cannot type anything in the adress-bar or in the Search-Bar! Also when i press the "back"-Button or open another Tab, the Adress-Bar and Search-Bar is frozen! When i press my Home Button and leave the PDF-Site it works fine again! Is this a problem of the Plug-In or a Firefox-Problem?

Greetings from Germany,

It seems to be a problem with Adobe Reader X Plug-in. Visit adobe.com to download and install Adobe Reader X (even if you already have it). I did this and it said "installing updated patch". Went back to Firefox to check and problem solved! :)

ps. did not need to disable any previous plug-in or even close Firefox.

I think its a also an issue with Windows Media Player, i have the same behavior as described above, when any side opens WMP. I always "fix" it by opening a tab in a new window, this activates the bars again.
