Mike, I have Adobe XI Pro and the same happens on my system at work. Do you know if the same occurs there?

This checkbox needs to be unchecked in prior versions but, I don't recall which tab in preferences it's in but, I think it might be in the Security tab. They made several changes from Adobe Reader 9 preferences to newer version preferences. I don't know what differences there are between Adobe Acrobat & Adobe Reader, if any. Take Care.

I am not sure how to do this in an older version of Adobe as v.9, but in Adobe Reader 11, there must in settings, "Settings extended" uncheck the box where pdf-document's are opened in protected mode. Probably you find this on the General tab in v.9.

During this past week I have had difficulty with two different .pdf documents, both protected. I cannot say more about the protection, JAWS says protected document, and I am able to read it for a while. Then my computer slows down drastically, JAWS loses focus, and I cannot use my computer until I give it a hard reset or a sighted person closes the .pdf document. Has anyone had this experience or know of a way to get around it. Also, this last document has links to other documents which I need to access, but they don't show up as links. When I enter on their names nothing happens. This may be a separate issue, but also important to me, as I need to read this documentation for work. BTW, I am using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. I am investigating having Acrobat Reader installed to see if this might help. I would appreciate any ideas from this list. Thank you.
