Here is a small(140KB) program that does it and you can reverse it with a fews clicks.
Also there are some tweaks on it such as getting rid of the splash screen.
PS-Also found out by this statement from the ARSU program that if Reader absolutely needs a plug-in it will load the disabled plug-ing anyway.

I've tried Foxit but it doesn't seem to load all pages of large files.
I've tried to open a 40 some page file and only seen the first 8 or 10 pages open in Foxit, but open properly in Adobe.

You might try a large file yourself and see if you get the same results | | Distinguished Member with 5,954 posts. | | Join Date: Jun 2002 Location: Texas Experience: Beginner | | Morning guys. | | Distinguished Member with 54,745 posts. | | Join Date: Oct 2001 Location: *Random People Pleaser***Sacra Experience: Having fun | | Quote: |

You might try a large file yourself and see if you get the same results  | I just tried it and a 491 page pdf and it opened very fast or almost right away.
I mean it is a very big pdf with images.
I went tru the pages very fast and went to the last page etc and all worked great.
Now if I open the same file again it opens even faster like in a blink of an eye.
Maybe you had a bad download so try again and download it again. | | Distinguished Member with 5,954 posts. | | Join Date: Jun 2002 Location: Texas Experience: Beginner | | I downloaded and tried it and it is really fast.
Had no problems. | | Distinguished Member with 5,954 posts. | | Join Date: Jun 2002 Location: Texas Experience: Beginner | | Stoner-Just be sure if you decide you don't want to use Foxit and decide to delete it go to Adobe and open it and click ok on the window that pops up or you want be able to use Adobe. | | Distinguished Member with 39,519 posts. | | Join Date: Oct 2002 Location: Dayton,Oh |

#10 | Thanks for the advice hewee  ........... 
It must have been a corrupted download the first time I tried it.
I opened up the same pdf, the instructions for my camera, and Foxit worked great.
The only thing that I might miss is copy and paste text, which I hardly use anyway.
