How to make Adobe Acrobat load faster ?
As soon as you accidentally click on a pdf web link you spend the next 10 minutes waiting for Adobe Acrobat to consume all your computer's resources then clunk into life/death.
If so try this handy optimisation
1) Go to C:\Program Files\Acrobat 6.0\Reader or wherever you installed reader
2) Rename the plug_ins directory to plug_ins_disabled
3) Create an empty plug_ins directory
4) Copy the files EWH32.api, printme.api and search.api back into plug_ins
This majorly reduces start up time, and if later you find you did really need eBook.api you can just always copy it back.

Upgrade to Acrobat Reader 7.0 .. u will get the same effect by default
The easier way is to press-hold the shift key while it's loading. This will "not load" the plug-ins.
