Publisher's description
From Krzysztof Kowalczyk :Sumatra PDF is a slim, free, open-source PDF viewer for Windows. Sumatra has a minimalistic design. Simplicity has a higher priority than a lot of features. It's small and starts up very fast. It's designed for portable use: it's just one file with no external dependencies so you can easily run it from external USB drive.
Version 0.9 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.

Version: Sumatra PDF Viewer 0.9
"Fast and easy but lacks features."
Pros: Faster to open PDFs than Adobe/Foxit.
Cons: No enough features. does not handle password protected files well. sometimes the characters don't show properly.
Summary: Good Initiative. Lot to improve. As of now, Foxit suits the best for me.

Version: Sumatra PDF Viewer 0.9
"Free & open source, light-weight & quick to open"
Pros: If you just want to read PDF's and nothing else, then this is very good. There's not much to say other than it does that job as it should. Adobe is a memory hog, Foxit has adverts and nags you to upgrade. Sumatra is light on memory use with no ads.
Cons: It's a simple program for just reading PDF's, this isn't a con unless you want to do more than just read them.
Summary: http://blog.kowalczyk.info/software/sumatrapdf/index.html - That's the page that i downloaded Sumatra PDF viewer from. Someone else said they had problems downloading it on cnet.

Version: Sumatra PDF Viewer 0.9
"uses little resources. works on slower computers"
Pros: Low on resources. Runs fast. installed on older computers and runs much faster than adobe.
Cant seem to download on cnet but i was able to get it at author's site:
http://blog.kowalczyk.info/software/sumatrapdf/
Use at your own risk. its not cnet.Cons: program keeps it simple (both good and bad). perhaps may run into compatibility issue but no problems yet.
Summary: if you use a slower computer, this program is great. keeps it simple and fast. on the other hand, probably wont notice speed difference on faster computers, and not sure if you would miss all the features on full-blown adobe reader.
