I maintain a PDF application that needs to open PDFs in the IE browser window. This generally works fine.

Today I'm discovering that users that have both Acrobat Reader 7.0 and Acrobat Pro 7.0, when they click on a link for a form, it opens up a separate Acrobat Reader window to display the form, which breaks the logic in my form.

I've checked several of these users, and they all have the "Open PDF in Browser" flag checked.

Users that only have Acrobat Reader 7.0, or that have Reader 6.0 and Writer 6.0, do not display this symptom.
