Adobe Acrobat has long (really long -- since version 1.0) bug, that it opens files both for reading and writing (instead of opening it read-only as good viewer should; it is probably residuum from from Adobe Acrobat not-only-Reader, which could write to PDF. So you have two options: a) either do terrible tricks described in the above link, b) use better PDF viewer -- GSView (http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/gsview/index.htm) opens file RO and it is able to do the same trick as DVI Viewers -- actualizing view when PDF file changes.
