The easiest thing to try is just upgrading both Mozilla and Acroread (if
possible).

However, I can say that in my experience with the Acroread plugin, it
rarely behaves the way it is supposed to. You might try gpdf or xpdf--
one or both might have a browser plugin.

Sorry I cannot actually be helpful...
