Netscape plugins don't work



Sorry if this is a FAQ, but I haven't seen it yet in this news group.

It seems that starting with v 4 of Netscape, the plugins no longer
work.  For example, when clicking a .pdf file, the script will no load
up acroread, or a .ram will not load up realaudio.  I must fall back
to version 3.01 in order for this to work.  I am currently using the v
4.02b7.

A dialog box appears with an error message

sh: -c: line 1: missing closing ')' for arithmetic expression
sh: -c: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token ';'
sh: -c: line 1: '((acroread file.pdf);rm file.pdf)&'

I suspect the wrong shell is loaded, but I haven't a clue how to
correct the problem.  Anyone else fixed this problem?
