I've been on 2 websites within the last 2 weeks that use Adobe Reader....Within a few seconds of the Reader appearing with the requested info, I get a popup saying there's a new version of the Adobe "Updater"....

I can't find any reference to this "Updater" on the Adobe website...Is it legit....???

Also---I need to update to 8.1.3 (I currently have 8.1.2)...If the Updater is legit, should I install that before doing the update to 8.1.3....???

Thanx in advance....
