Hi, We have already received reports from several customers that they have been experiencing massive performance problems with Adobe Reader for about 2 weeks now. Has anyone noticed this or has a solution?

no reports at my org, but i've been effectively out for about 4.5 weeks (vacation sandwiched between assorted conferences). i am definitely interested in what others are saying on the topic though

We switched to PDFGear 9 months ago after having years of issues with Adobe, Citrix Print Manager service dying and needed restarted repeatedly causing printing failure for all our users (3500 active daily users). Since switching to PDFGear we’ve had 0 Citrix Print Manager Service crashes and no issues.

We have put massive GPO registry entries into place to tame Adobe Reader. We only still use it for the write-up function, otherwise we use browser based PDF viewing every where else.

Same experience here at some of our customers with the last update 24.003.. we disabled bProtectedMode with GPO to use it « normally »
