Let me reiterate this, Adobe reader will work for normal local users of
the machine if it is a local profile. As soon as you make the user
profile a roaming profile on the domain, this is when you get the
issues.

I'm putting this out there everywhere I have a presence in hopes that
Adobe will get off it's butt and fix this problem. If you install Adobe
9 acrobat reader on Windows Vista on a domain and use roaming profiles
for users, be it mandatory or not, Acrobat Reader crashes and will not
run. It gives errors in modules annots.api and also msvc80.dll.
As soon as you give the user admin priveleges the program will run.
I've tried turning off UAC, still broke, I've tried running adobe reader
in compatibility mode, still broke, I've tried running adobe as
administrator settings still broke. I've tried changing access on adobe
folders to give users full control, still broke. Giving a user
administrator priveleges is NOT an acceptable solution.
I am not the only one having this issue there are posts all over the
internet including the below samples IN the adobe forums.

Don't install Adobe Acrobat 9 in a vista domain unless you want some
super headaches!
