I'm reading comments from users elsewhere that "FoxIt" is reaching
bloat levels like Acrobat Reader. Silj -- siljaline MS - MVP Windows (IE/OE) & Security, AH-VSOP _________________________________________ Security Tools Updates http://aumha.net/viewforum.php?f=31 Reply to group, as return address is invalid that we may all benefit. |

How - it's only a 2MB install - which doesn't even create a Program Files

In the end it didn't help my resources issue either, instead it aggrevated the situation, Silj, but I am going to experiment, until I get it right. For the time being I like the way Foxit works and will tolerate it, for a while at least. Thanks for the pointer. Harry. "siljaline" wrote in message ...

Realizing this - it is OP option to use either or, depending on HD space and flavour of app as well. The trick here is to ensure a complete uninstall of Adobe stuff (I was going to say cr&p - but that'd be going too far, and is reserved for the likes of Norton) - once that's done, I haven't yet met a PDF file that Foxit can't render properly (although not necessarily with teh bells and whistles available in Adobe) -- Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2006, Windows) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.crashfixpc.com/millsrpch.htm http://tinyurl.com/6oztj Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's |

Agreed which is why I used the words "consider using Foxit" rather than
say the more forceful uninstall Acrobat and use Foxit, leaving it for Harry to decide which avenue to pursue. -- Mike Maltby siljaline wrote: "Mike M" wrote: siljaline wrote: Perhaps - just passing along comments I've read elsewhere Comments which would appear to be both incorrect and ill informed.

I've been considering it, just haven't got round to downloading and
installing yet g The main use for PDF files I have is getting my phone bill each month and some of my cross stitch pattern downloads are in PDF format. Will have to investigate when I have the time g Joan Mike M wrote: Agreed which is why I used the words "consider using Foxit" rather than say the more forceful uninstall Acrobat and use Foxit, leaving it for Harry to decide which avenue to pursue. |

Mike, you tricky one g, had no idea that the word 'consider' had such far reaching consequences, but those are the 'powers to be'. Now I can say "I'm informed". Thanks. Harry.
