A couple of years ago I found a registry hack for Adobe Reader (but have since lost the bookmark).

It "disabled" the pre-loading of all the plug-ins (invoked when needed).

Dramatic speed increase in loading.

I still get by with version 5.1. It doesn't take forever to download, doesn't use many resources. You can get it here: http://www.oldversion.com/p...

I was just going to suggest Foxit. By the time the Adobe splash screen finished drawing on your screen, with foxit you can be halfway through your document.

or a different reader that is not at "bloated"
