Firefox rox !

 

[abracadabra1]

until recently I only had acrobat reader 5.0 ce. i upgraded to 6.0+ (whatever the new version is) and it is slow as balls compared to 5.0

firefox acrobat does load buttloads faster than ie though.

i dont think its firefox, your computer got smarter

 

[Valhalla1]

it loads slow due to loading too many unneccesary plugins. go into the plugins folder and move the ones you don't need and it loads quicker

PDF?

probability distribution function?

What Firefox version?
I have 1.0, and I can literally have a cup of tea before it loads a PDF.

 

[StageLeft]

I dunno; how long do you take to load in firefox?

 

[forumJunkie]

or if you really want it to load faster hold down the shift key while you do it. It bypasses all the plugins.... so you won't get CTRL+F to work but at least it loads faster

 

[aircooled]

acrobat is just plain slow as snot. they really need to fix it....

How to speed up adobe acrobat - revolutionized my life!

Open the "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 6.0\Reader" folder
Find the plug_ins folder and rename it plug_ins_disabled
Create a new folder named plug_ins
Copy the following files from "plug_ins_disabled" to "plug_ins": EWH32.api, printme.api, and search.api

sweet, going to install that on my home pc when I get home. I usually avoid opening any PDF links with firefox because it's so freaking slow. Sounds like this utility is the fix.
