I just switched over to firefox, but everytime I browse to a page in PDF format, Firefox can't open in and just uses up 99% of CPU. The only way to stop it is to end the program. Please help.

I've been using Foxit PDF Reader with Firefox for about 6 months now and haven't encountered any prob's at all. The great thing is, it's a fraction of the size of Adobe and much, much faster.
