Acrobat Loading time reducer

Where can I get this file? I remember it was discussed on here and there was a place to download it but I can't seem to find it.
 
I just followed these instructions:

After installing Acrobat Reader, locate the folder that it was installed to. Commonly, that would be c:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 6.0\Reader.

Rename the plug_ins folder to plug_ins_disabled.

Make a new plug_ins folder.

Move EWH32.api, search.api, and printme.api from plug_ins_disabled to plug_ins.

Why does acrobat take so long to load and why does this file make it work faster?

Acrobat 6 loads up over 22MB of plug-ins, the majority of which aren't useful 99% of the time. This will reduce the amount to less than 1MB. - David Chen blog where I got those instructions.

That should be like a sin, or something. I hate when that happens and I have to altctrldel to close it.
