Anyone noticed that after you close the (free) Acrobat reader that a TSR using 18MB of memory is still resident in the task manager?

Yep. Though for some reason it hasn't the past few times I've used it...I have no clue why that is though as it used to do it every time.

I was actually referring the use thru Internet Explorer. If you click a URL that leads to a .pdf file using IE 5.5, then close the browser window, the acrobat reader TSR will remain.

Actually, if you open the Acrobat Reader program and then close it, it will go away.

Ah there lies the difference. The past few times I had used it had been files on my HDD. Just checked and yeah it does it every time I open a .pdf from IE5.
