I upgraded from Firefox 2 to Firefox 3 today; but the Adobe plug-in no
longer works.  It was working in Firefox 2.

I have Adobe 8 Pro installed; when I download and try to install the
Adobe Acrobat Reader plug-in for Firefox, the installation stops
saying I already have a version of Adobe installed (which is correct).

How do I get Firefox 3 to work with my Adobe 8 Pro?
