Hi MarkATS,

Before I posted here, along with KoenV, I posted my quandry with www.bleepingcomputer.com as after some research I thought my problem might be spyware related. I see now that issue was with version 7. In the meantime, one person responded to my query suggesting that I get rid of the adobe updater, and sent me to this site to download 3 of 4 small files to accomplish that.

Not being very familiar with Reader or this silly Updater gone crazy, I was hoping you might take a look at this and see if it's something we should consider. Otherwise, I'm ready to abandon 8 and go back to 7. I'm having problems each and every time I download a page to my Reader. It doesn't matter if it's only a page or 4 pages, it's slower than molasses to download, clogs up my CPU to 100% - and will NOT abate until I kill it by End Process through the Task Manager. And, of late, when I kill the AdobeUpdater.exe process, another one pops up immediately and must also be ended!?

Thanks in advance for your help, much appreciated. Here are the site I was given for the above:
