I haven't tried the free reader but if you have the full blown Adobe Acrobat 
Professional there are no ads.  There is a Yahoo tool bar but that is used to 
search the Internet if you want to.  You can turn it off by going to View, 
Toolbars and uncheck search the Internet.

  you can modify the install with an mst , i did it for adobe 6 i dont see why
  you cant do the same for adobe 7 , have a mooch around you'll find the
  source somewhere to take out all kinds of things from standard adobe, which
  incidently i would not put without modifying onto a terminal server farm ,
  it runs like a dog. if you dont need various filters and the like , take
  them out with a scripted install... it runs much faster and cleaner

  That's the actual toolbar Joe, not the advertising as per Matthews
  question. Even if you download without the toolbar you will still get the
  advertising.

  Cheers,
  Jeremy.

  You can download Adobe Reader 7 without the Yahoo toolbar…  Simply uncheck
  the box (second one) which is located below the OS selection.

  Subject: [THIN] Yahoo advertising in Adobe Reader 7

  I’m running Adobe Reader 7 on XP and am noticing that on the toolbar it
  displays “Yahoo toolbar get it free”  link and then changes to “PDF 
eBooks
  read one for free”. Does anyone know of a way to disable this advertising?

  Thanks,
