Just tried out Adobe acrobat 7 with Firefox. Wont load hypertex linked pdfs from web pages!:confused: :confused: Its much faster than Adobe 6 but has some annoying features like an exe file that runs from startup and another one which continues to run in memory unless you actively kill it after use.:mad: The full download from the Adobe site is also "BLOATWARE" with lots of extras like a Yahoo toolbar program you dont need.:eek: You can load a stripped down version from the Adobe ftp site. but once installed dont use the upgrade function when prompted since it then upgrades by downloading the "bloatware version" :devil: :devil: You have been warned! It also managed to screw up my IE settings also.:mad: I am back to using reader 6 with some tweaks to speed it up.;)
 
You might find this useful to save memory when browsing PDFs with Firefox :)
