So we have another drive by possibility.

I am going to try Sumatra or Foxit, as mentioned by gravos in your link, l79.

Thanks, l79.

Oh well.

There is also a Foxit toolbar you do NOT want to install so uncheck it when your install or get the zip version but no matter what version in you run the check for updates it will list the Foxit toolbar so do not pick it.

I use the Portable version.
Another I use now is PDF-XCHANGE VIEWER
