    The sites are part of the adobe.com domain, so in that sense they are genuine Adobe sites. Adobe software now connects to the internet constantly for many reasons, including updates, news, licensing checks, piracy detection and more; they do not provide a list of sites or even domains.

    Be aware that Reader 11 is not the current product, and it will reach EOL in a few months. After that there will be no fixes, not even for security issues.
