Adobe Reader 6.0 for Windows loads lots of unused plugins on startup. The Inquirer has a great article explaining how you can disable those unneeded plugins and make Adobe Reader load faster. Basically, you need to do the following: • Install Adobe Reader 6.0 and notice where it is installed. • Navigate to that folder in Explorer, locate the plug_ins subfolder and rename this folder to plug_ins_disabled. • Create a new plug_ins folder. • Move the files EWH32.api, printme.api and search.api from plug_ins_disabled to plug_ins.
