Hi Lorraine,

Make the fix I did to Adobe Reader itself by removing the Updater.acroplugin. You can get inside the app by right-clicking on it to Show Package Contents or holding down the Control key and clicking on the app then selecting Show Package Contents from the pop-up menu.

If you do this, then the Safari PDF viewer will work also. It does for me. In addition, if you still have Adobe Reader 7.0.8 on your system, you can go into the Adobe Reader 8 preferences and under the Internet category, the first selection is Display PDF in browser using : (pull down menu here) to select which reader you want (7.0.8 or 8.0.0).
