Aha, so im not alone then...many thanks for the reply.

I have created a custom msi using the Adobe admin tool,one with Orca and one 
with Wise Package Studio.
What components did you strip out from the msi ? I wonder what i may have 
missed.
The only thing i havent tried is using the latest adobe speedup to see if that 
strips enough out.

Regards

  yes and yes.

  can you confirm. have you done a custom .msi install using the adobe admin 
tool. we disabled a lot of features and this has helped.

  Otherwise, have a look at FOX PDF reader. It's free, faster and works well 
under Citrix (we are testing this in DEV at the moment) I also use it on my 
laptop.

    Hello there,

    I have been testing Adobe 7 and have found that an old Adobe issue has come 
back to haunt me. 
    (With Adobe 601/02/03 we have no issues with our Intranet and opening up 
PDF files.)

    However, Adobe 7 is now required and  will not unload after a pdf file has 
been opened in a web browser for any user including admins.
    This also happens on 2000/Xp workstations as well.
    (for various reasons I cannot turn off the browser integration with Adobe)

    Has anyone else seen this with Adobe 7 ?

    I've tried 703 and 705 full versions.
