One of the things that always bugged me about Adobe’s Acrobat Reader was the length of time it took to load. Luckily, somebody else had the same frustration and has a good way to make Acrobat load faster [dotnetjunkies.com]. The page specifies Acrobat 6, but I’m still on 5 and it worked like a charm. The way to do it is to remove all the files from the plug_ins folder with the exception of EWH32.api and search.api. The only plugin I didn’t have that the site specified was printme.api, but it seems to be working ok without it.
