Acroread never dies

[Pietro Cerutti]

Hello,

FreeBSD gahr-laptop 6.2-RC1 FreeBSD 6.2-RC1 #0: Mon Dec  4 08:59:14
CET 2006     root at gahr-laptop:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GAHR  i386

acroread7-7.0.8,1
acroreadwrapper-0.0.20060221
firefox-2.0_2,1

the Acrobat Reader 7 plugin works just fine, but the acroread process
doesn't die even after the Firefox window containing the object
visualized by the plugin (a PDF document) has been closed.

The process is displayed in top(1), sometimes in status "select",
sometimes even in status "RUN".
17468 piter         1  97    0   107M 79776K select   0:06  0.20% acroread

I just don't understand why the process stays alive, and what it's
does, when RUNning.

As a side effect, everything copied to the X clipboard gets
intercepted  by acroread, which is very uncomfortable when using tools
like sysutils/pwsafe...

I would even be more than happy to uninstall acroread, but I really
need the firefox plugin...

Any ideas?

Thanx!
