[CGUYS] adobeupdater.exe

2007-06-15 Thread Ralph

I'm surprised to not see any reports of problems with adobeupdater.exe
hogging the cpu, following an upgrade to Adobe Reader 8.0 and 8.1.
Maybe it's peculiar to my firewall program - Sunbelt Personal
Firewall...

Anyway, I found a renaming option that worked, at this link:

I'm not having the problem, but I glanced at the thread you quoted and
FYI the renaming option should only be tried if the *better* option of
turning off the updater in Preferences doesn't work.

  Adobe updater on my Mac launches itself only if I invoke it.  It 
grabs any update info, and that seems to be about it.  No issues with 
me.  Used it last night to grab an update to Photoshop for camera raw 
purposes.
