With Adobe 8 though, I could never find anyway to eliminate the automatic update feature entirely. Is there a way to turn off auto updates with Adobe 9?

Hi Derek, You should be able to find a good version of the Adobe reader on the list website. Here's a hot tip: If you are only using the reader, then there is really no need to update, especially if you aren't having any problems. In the case of most software, this is a good reason not to enable any automatic updating. HTH, Richard Q.

So like I updated to the latest Adobe reader a few days ago at the prompt of the adobe updater, and for whatever reason it just decided to start out of nowhere and say "this version does not contain support for screen readers!" gur'r'rh'rhr'hrrnrllrlrlrrbrlrbrlrblrblbr!!!!! I want my old adobe reader back! :@ So, if you get asked to update to I think it's reader 8.0.1 (which may have been out for a while, not sure) don't! This does seem somewhat jaws related to me, it greatly effects reading pdf's with jaws. If I'm wrong on this, sorry. Going to smash something, thanks!
