Hi,
Several customers of mine have seen issues with Adobe Reader causing my product to crash after taking the Aug and September updates. My application runs embedded IE, which then loads and unloads Adobe components when any PDF links are clicked on by endusers.
In the mini-dump files the "blaming" module is AcroPDFImpl.dll. Here is an excerpt
PRIMARY_PROBLEM_CLASS: APPLICATION_FAULT
