Rant: Adobe Reader
« on: June 21, 2007, 03:44:35 AM »
I hate it when software update install other bullshit on my PC without asking me.  I did the Adobe Reader 8.01 update (from 7.0+) and it installed "Adobe Photo whatever bullshit".

It\'s easy to uninstall from add/remove programs.. but still..

blah, guess I am moody this morning.

I hate the fact that every time I download something I have to make sure it\'s not trying to install some crap like "google toolbar" or "emusic desktop icon".  If you don\'t\' take your time and look through the installation options you might just get gonorrhea

You\'re not alone.  Adobe\'s numerous, bandwidth hogging updates do piss me off.  It\'s almost as bad as an anti-virus program that updates everyday.

Yeah, and it\'s a fucking PDF reader. What does it need updates for? I just want it to display shit.

At least my Mac doesn\'t need that crap to just display PDF\'s with no fuss. :)

thousand of alternative. Just like there are alternative to Mac crap

in the end, it\'s all crap. You just have to choose which crap you feel is less crap and be done with it.
