I may have used the right click in Firefox to save the rpm or used
wget to download it.

One advantage of using the RPM is that the file contexts get set
correctly for SELinux.  But because the browser plugin is installed
outside of rpm, you still need to restorecon the plugin:

# /usr/local/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/Browser/install_browser_plugin
<the plugin installation script prompts you a few times>
# restorecon /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/nppdf.so

(Assuming that this is where you installed the plugin.)
