Version: Adobe Reader 9.1
Pros: Does what is expected.
Cons: Every version of this program seems to get worse. Memory hog. Foxit Reader is a great alternative.

Version: Adobe Reader 9.1
Pros: does as advertised
Cons: im sorry there is no reason for this to take up 20mbs just to dl, when foxit takes 1/5th that installed. can we say "bloatwear"? aol, msn, and yahoo have been known to have hidden adware in their programs and it looks like u can add adobe to the mix. enjoy the bloatwear and the 65+ mbs of space adobe reader takes, ill take foxit and its 4mbs of space. ill use my 60+mbs i save on programs that justify the space.

Version: Adobe Reader 9.1
Cons: it gets bigger every version! What's up with that? It's a READER, not a composer.
Try Foxit Reader instead!

Version: Adobe Reader 9.1
Pros: It works. No spyware or other junk.
Cons: Very bloated. Try FoxIt if you want a slim 2MB alternative.

Version: Adobe Reader 9.1
"I like this version the best yet, with a few reservations."
Pros: This application is a bigger download and install. But it is easy to install and use all the features. It isn't nearly as light on system recourses as "Foxit Reader" but my opinion is that it is a better application thats more stable easier to use and better features than any other free application of this type. It's save, find and print options all work great no matter how large or the graphics you might fine in a PDF formatted document. Works well with all PDF format types that I've ever needed it for. Excellent range of viewing and printing options. You can scale documents up or down to fit. It's free, comes from the number one "PDF Reader Company" and runs great with "Vista".
Cons: It's a bigger download and install then some other similar applications. It's slower to open and uses more recourses by far then "Foxit Reader". It will never be the equal of it's sister application "Adobe Acrobat Pro" but I believe it to be the best free PDF reader.
