Are you certain? I found that it is called but does get launched.

That sounds more like a windows problem to me than anything else. What 
shows in taskmanager?

Probably nothing :-(  I tested mozilla on my linux box and got the same 
results as you. I conclude from that that Mozilla's helper application 
interface has problems. I have no problems with Netscape 7.x under linux 
nor on the XP boxen that the family use.

If taskmanager shows extra copies of acroread then this is a symptom.
