Well i loaded Adobe Reader 8 and it is not working for me at all. I have a Dell 2650 Inspiron with 1g Ram and 30G HD. running Win 2000 Pro.
After updating Adobe, i opened a PDF and when i Scrol using Mouse Wheel or Clicking down arrow, i get multiple windows displayed in Document. I slowed down the "Hardware" acceleration and still get it. On top of that my computer slows down to a craw and goes nowhere. when i checked my "Processes" running in Task Manager, the AdobeUpdater.EXE is pegging my CPU to 98% and not doing anything. I have to "End Process" to get anything done.
