  You might want to try this:
  
  <script>
  var p;
  try {
  p = new ActiveXObject('AcroExch.Document');
  }
  catch (e) {
  // active x object could not be created
  document.write('doesnt look like the PDF plugin is installed...');
  }
  if (p)
  document.write('does look like the pdf plugin is installed!');
  endif;
  </script>
