Adobe Reader Bloat 21/04/2005
Found this wee gem of a tip on slashdot
Try this, ‘tis most excellent! Makes Reader load in 1/2 sec or so, terminates quickly, and hardly ever crashes.
It seems it’s all those damn stupid bloated plugins causing the problems. To fix:
1. Install Adobe Reader 6.0 (or 7.0+) and notice where it is installed.
2. Navigate to that folder in Explorer, locate the plug_ins subfolder and rename this folder to plug_ins_disabled.
3. Create a new plug_ins folder.
4. Move the files EWH32.api, printme.api and search.api from plug_ins_disabled to plug_ins.
