513163 2007-01-06 09:26:00 Fortunatley they are both free. winmacguy (3367)
513164 2007-01-06 09:34:00 Woohoo, Free security risks.

If anything 7 was a major pile of bloated insane crap after 6, which itself was shocking after 5. Going to give up entirely on Adobe free products, They are simply not worth the asking price.

Cheers Speedy.

513169 2007-01-06 20:34:00 Can someone tell me what version of Adobe Reader 8.0 you guys are having now? I got mine two-three months earlier than you all so I just want to know if there is a new version. msnforum (11610)
513170 2007-01-06 20:52:00 I'm not using Adobe reader 7 or 8. I'm using Foxit Reader.

The link mmmork posted.

It doesn't install as much crap, and its smaller (about 1.5 mb).

The version I d/l yesterday was 8.0.0 so you probably have the lastest. Can check for updates in the help menu anyways.

(I have adobe & foxit and a lot of other pointless doubling up)
