That doesn't surprise me in the slightest. And why is Adobe Reader so
massive? I may be naive but to me all those extra features just mean extra
vulnerabilities. Even with the Customization Wizard the installs are 100MB+
- and don't get me started on Pro. Pushing 3GB App-V packages across the
network for that, glorious.

FoxIt has too many features as well, IMO, and it's tiny compared to Adobe's
guff. I'm using Google Docs from now on for PDFs and on the odd occasion I
need to edit it I will use FoxIt Portable.

Cheers,



JR
