Where do I Disable Auto Update in 9.3?

i think it was the problem i had, not that Adobe is updating, but that Adobe checks for updates everytime it launches...

when opening a file using adobe reader 9.3.3, a standard .pdf, notification informs checking for updates... takes ages, then finally loads. i think that was the problem above.

cant speak for a Mac but Windows 7 Enterprise is different to Adobe info.

open Adobe Reader, navigate to:

edit - preferences

left column defines categories

navigate to:

Trust Manager - Automatic Updates on right 3rd box down.

two check boxes were ticked: load trusted root certs and ask before installing

i unchecked both.

now opening a .pdf Adobe loads to 100% instantly without checking for updates...

of course manual updates are now required.

For Windows it is in the preferences of Adobe Reader.
