 Some steps can be taken :

  1. If this adobe reader is in desktop, then open it , find out the option saying "Always open with protected mode disabled" and check it , then go back to your embedded document in IE and open it.If its not working well , open IE, go to Tools>internet options>advanced tab>click reset. Hopefully that will work soon
  2. In case of reading a PDF document  in the browser (say in Firefox) by using reader X plug-in, there could be happen the  same problem. Exit the browser and restart it but will not be permanently fixed. This can be happening periodically, to avoid the annoyance simply download the PDF document and have it nicely on a desktop.
