When trying to download Adobe Reader from Adobe, currently they force you to either pick an old version (8.x) or to pick the current version (9.2 ATM) but bundled with their lame Air framework. Yet there is still a version without Air available from their FTP, it’s here:
ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.2/enu/AdbeRdr920_en_US.exe (NB: if a new version becomes available, try browsing this (or a higher level for major version changes).
Many thanks
Using your suggestion, looked for, and found .. ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.3/enu/AdbeRdr930_en_US.exe
Thanks for the updated link
