Hello everybody,

we have Adobe Reader installed on every computer in our company, and we are using Windows XP Professional clients in our network. Our server runs with Windows Server 2003, user rights are managed via Active Directory.
It would be nice, if users could update Adobe Reader themselves. But when a logged in user starts Adobe Reader, they can't click on Help, "search for updates" - the button is only visible when an administrator account is logged in.
What permissions do user accounts need, so that they can update Adobe Reader themselves? Does anyone know?

Kind regards,
Chris
