One of my billing sites displays a view of my bill using what I suppose is a pdf. I get this error at the top saying npapi is blocked by firefox - do I want to continue or use npapi. That never works. So, I changed my prefs to use Adobe Reader instead. It still tries to use npapi at this site despite my prefs. Is the site antiquated or is Firefox kludgy?
