Redhat Posted July 13, 2004 Report Share Posted July 13, 2004 PDF SpeedUp allows you to significantly speed up the time it takes to load Adobe Reader.If you notice that when the Reader starts it loads many plug-ins which you may or may not need, this program simply disables the plug-ins and loads only the absolute necessary ones so the program starts quickly.It offers several options and you can also manually enable or disable the plug-ins as needed. PDF SpeedUp works with Acrobat versions 3 through 6.xx.Features:· Free PDF Tweak Utility for Adobe Acrobat v3.0 to v5.5, Adobe Reader v6.0, v6.01, v6.02.· Enable or disable the plug-ins as needed· Turn off all Updates features· Disable the splash screen during program startup· Remove the My eBooks folder created in My Documents· Turn off the advertisements for Adobe products in the upper-right corner of the toolbar· Remove PrintMe and Adobe Reader icons· Disable Browser Integration· Disable confirmation dialog when closing Adobe Reader· Better speed for LAN and Cable connection· Clear Adobe Reader Recent Files History· Restore to original settings at any timehttp://www.softpedia.com/public/cat/4/2/4-2-123.shtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-pops- Posted July 13, 2004 Report Share Posted July 13, 2004 I find it rather sad that people can't wait a few seconds for a program to load.How long does Adobe Reader take to load. How long does it take to load with this software installed? Even if the time saved is (relatively) significant, is can't be more than a few seconds. What are you going to do in all that time that is saved?I think this is a good example of clutter ware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarecrow Man Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 Good post Redhat. I found it interesting, and my Acrobat takes atleast 30 seconds to load. I'll give it a try, although I'm sure there are options in acrobat to do everything it does, no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-pops- Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 Lol i was kinda kiddin cos it was the next step from "this is useless" but your right, someone will use it :)Apparently there is a serious fan club for this clutter ware at the other place and Pesala argues almost rabidly in its favour. He give quotes of fantastic time savings of 2 seconds in twelve and other such nonsense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
