I've installed Reader 8.1.2 on a 2003 Windows server STD Edition with SP1. Everytime I open a pdf document (regardless of what's contained in it)and I scroll using the mouse or the scroll bar the AcroRd32.exe process spikes near 100% utilization. The effect is, scrolling slows down extremely slow and you loose control of the scrolling until it stops. Once the scrolling stops the CPU utilization comes back down to zero for the AcroRd32.exe process.

Side note, I've tried different types of pdf documents, some with plain text and some with pictures. The same result occurs every time.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
