Hello

I am very dissapointed to discover that in Adobe CS4 the acrobat reader bug still exists.

The only solution is to either map the share to a drive letter and modify the registry so the profile is directed there (as above) but I have found that this causes serious problems with other programs and can cause profiles to not be loaded properly due to the drive not getting mapped in time.

I then created a more elaborate shortcut script which would modify the profile path and then open the program and modify it back but this also caused problems with other programs.

This problem has occured ever since Acrobat Reader Pro/Standard were released. It is surprising how difficult it is for Adobe to create an application for viewing pdfs which does not instantly crash when you open it.
Surely a major bug like this should not take many months to fix and when you have to remorgage your house to buy the CS4 Master Collection I feel you should at least be able to view pdfs without getting "This application has requested the Runtime to terminate in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information". So can you give me more information and/or possibly fix this sometime?

My only real solution which was also the same in CS3 is to avoid installing the Acrobat program and use Foxit Reader or to install Acrobat 8 which does not suffer from this problem/or 6 Pro to edit pdfs which I still have a licence for.

Thanks
Robin
