I'm seeing the same problem with the full version of Adobe Acrobat 9.0 Professional, in what seems to be the same setup, only XP clients as well as Vista are affected.

The exact error messages I'm getting are:

      Microsoft Visual C++ Debug Library





      Runtime Error!





      Program: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe





      The application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an usual
      way. Please contact the application's support team for more information.




and when viewing PDF files in Internet Explorer:

      Microsoft Visual C++ Debug Library





      Debug Error!





      Program: C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe





      abnormal program termination





      (Press Retry to debug the application)




My Domain Admin account is not affected, even when I assigned it a roaming profile temporarily. Curiously, I tried adding an affected user to the local Administrators group and this had no effect - the user still experienced crashes.

The same user logging onto one of our laptops (which are set to use local profiles even for domain users) does NOT experience crashes.

I've managed to generate a crash dump for this and from reading through the stack trace it appears the problem stems from the PDFLTerm() function in AdobePDFL.dll

What more can I say? We've just bought a site licence for Acrobat so at least I should be able to kick up a fuss, unlike anyone using Reader...
