What's the exact version number of the application (You can find it out by going to Help - About Adobe Acrobat Reader)? What's your OS version?

Guys you won't believe it but. I downloaded the 32 bit version of acrobat reader even though my computer is a windows 64bit and now the text box moves up and down. Must be a bug with the 64bit version.

How do you try to scroll? By turning the mouse wheel or by moving the bar with the cursor? Also, on some systems the scroll direction works in the opposite direction. Is this the case for you eventually?

By moving the bar with the cursor. And no it doesn't work in the opposite direction.
