adobe acrobat reader toolbar missing in browser - solution

After several updates (windows 7, firefox, etc)  I realized that I was no longer seeing the tool bar for acrobat reader when a PDF opened within a browser. This is needed to save the PDF locally or to search within the PDF.

to see the toolbar again press F8

Generally I prefer to open a PDF outside of the browser. For some reason adobe reader X is not obeying my preference deselection for "open PDF in browser" in conjunction with firefox 7.
