Won't go into too much detail - but been going back and forth with engineers at Adobe and they're now able to replicate the issue inhouse - so there is indeed progress. This is caused by one of two things 1. Use of an Browser [IE] Asyncrhonous Pluggable Protocol in which the calling URL being passed to the Acrobat Plugin is not DNS resolvable, and on a machine where NBNS (NetBios Name Service) is enabled - you can see that setting under your Network Adapter > TCP/IP > Advanced > WINS 2. Any enterprise where a web proxy is used and DNS is not allowed directly from the workstation - in other words, where the proxy is allowed to resolve, but not workstations. Again, NBNS/WINS must be enabled, since it is the looping in NBNS that causes the painful wait.
