Doesn't give a loud warning that an executable is no longer protected (Adobe Reader updated to ver 11)

Running EMET 4.1 on Win XP.
I updated Adobe PDF Reader from version 9 to version 11.   When this happens, Adobe places the program's executable file in a different subdirectory than in the previous version.  The file name is the same, but the location is completely different
(Adobe uses the version number as a subdirectory name).  EMET did not loudly warn me that AcroRd32.exe was no longer protected. 
It did mark that executable in italics to show that something was wrong. But I only noticed that because I deliberately went in to the protected apps screen to check.  There's no indication on EMET's home screen that a previously protected program is
now unprotected. And there wasn't an easy right-click menu to modify the executable's path.  I had to delete, search, and re-add the Adobe executable.

Use the Add Wildcard button to replace the version number in the path with *.
The Recommended Software profile in the Deployment folder has an entry which sets the path to
*\Adobe\Reader*\Reader\AcroRd32.exe
The Memprot mitigation should be disabled for Adobe Reader and Acrobat.

    No, I do not mean just the music.  Copying just the media/music files or the media folder creates problems.

    I am having trouble printing a PDF document. Whenever I click print nothing happens but when I am printing documents from Word, Excel etc they print without a problem. I've tried printing as image but that did not work. I uninstalled Adobe Reader XI and downloaded Adobe Reader X instead and that still doesn't work. I have Windows 7.

    Hello,
    Please follow the link to troubleshoot the printing issues with Adobe Reader:- Troubleshoot PDF printing | Acrobat, Reader.

I have tried removing Firefox but when I try to do that it says that I need to close firefox - but of course it is not open. I have waited a long time but nothing has happened so I am getting desperate Thanks -- Jerry

    Do a clean (re)install:
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Don't remove personal data when uninstalling.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    You can initially skip the step to create a new profile, that may not necessary for this issue.

  • Warning: Zero Day exploit in the wild targeting Adobe Reader 9.4.6

    Adobe has just released details of a Zero Day exploit targeting Reader version 9.4.6, details here: http://blogs.adobe.com/asset/2011/12/background-on-cve-2011-2462.html
    An independent site called H Security also has some background info on the subject which, to a lesser degree, also affects 10.1.1: http://www.h-online.com/security/news/item/New-Adobe-Reader-zero-day-in-the-wild-1391441.h tml

    So here we are now sitting pretty with Reader updated to 9.4.7
    However, once again, this update has FAILED to address the issue with the Firefox plugin which remains as 9.4.5.236
    So anybody who unwittingly updates Reader to 9.4.7 but doesn't notice that the Firefox plugin remains as 9.4.5.236 is going to have a nasty surprise if they happen to land on a malware infested site!
    The only workaround here is to disable the plugin in the Firefox Add-ons manager which you can access by hitting CTRL+SHIFT+A. Go to the Plugins menu and click the "Disable" button to the right on the Reader installation. This means you will be unable to read PDF files in the Firefox browser and will instead be presented with the option to download them to your own machine. If however you choose to open them with the disabled plugin, it will once again remain enabled until you manually disable it again, so be careful.

  • Adobe Reader updater doesn't work properly in Windows 7

    For the longest time, I've been receiving update notifications from Adobe Reader, prompting me to upgrade. I always say ok, download the update. Then it always takes like 1 second to download (hard to believe it's that fast), then I get the install window. I press the "Install" button and the window disappears and I don't receive any additional messages... Until I reboot my computer and I get again the same update download prompt window.
    So it seems the update doesn't work and that's why I get that message EVERYTIME I reboot the PC. Not matter if I reboot every 5 minutes, I always get that message.
    Please, fix your updater so it doesn't annoy the user like this with non working updates!
    Since the updater doesn't work, is there a way to disable it? Thank you!

    Ok, I've added the registry setting you mentioned, then I've started "AdobeARMHelper.exe" again to get the tray notification about the available update. Then I've clicked it, I got the download window, I clicked "Download", then 1 second later I got another tray notification about the update being ready to install (maybe it takes so little time because the update is already in my computer and so it doesn't download anything). Then I clicked the tray notification and got the install window. I clicked Install, and nothing else happened, as always.
    Then, I've checked the "AdobeARM.log" file, and now it shows the following:

    It seems there are some errors in Spanish, probably because they come from Windows, which is configured in Spanish in my PC. "El sistema no puede encontrar el archivo especificado" means "The system cannot find the file specified".
    I hope you can find the problem with that information.

  • How can I turn off the blue tips that pop up every time I start Adobe Reader?

    Every time I start Adobe Reader XI, or every time I double-click a PDF file from another program, a blue bubble pops up under the "Open" portion of the toolbar that says "Easily open all your files across devices" and I cannot make it stop.
    I have:
    - Unchecked "Show me messages when I launch Reader" in Preferences/General/Messages form Adobe
    - Checked "Don't show messages while reviewing a document" in Preferences/General/Messages form Adobe
    How can I make this stop displaying?
    Thanks.

    This was strange.  To be honest, I had never clicked the large "open" folder icon on the left of the toolbar.  Once I did it showed me three options: Recent Files, My Computer, and Acrobat.com Files (cloud storage).
    After actually looking at this feature, and then closing and opening Acrobat Reader again, the blue pop-up does not appear anymore.  I closed and opened Acrobat Reader several times and it does not appear anymore.  Apparently, it's a prompt to get you to look at the feature and prompts you until you do.  I'm not sure why it does not appear on your screen.  Perhaps a feature that is available only to "newer" versions of Windows (7+)?
    I appreciate your help.  Thank you.

  • HT1026 When I do this a copy is created, and when I try to move the old file to trash I get a warning that this clip will no longer be visible in my project. How do I make the drag and drop move the clip and not just make a copy?

    In Imovie 2008 when I drag an event to another drive, the event is copied and not moved. Thereafter if I try to move the original clip to trash I anm warned the clip will no longer be accessible in the project it is linked to. How do I get to move the clip and keep it connected to the project?

    I have iPhoto '09. The problem occurs when I try to move a photo from iPhoto onto a document or anywhere. I click on the photo and try to drag it to the document. When I do this a message box pops up saying that the file cannot be opened because it is empty. This only happens with a small number of photos but I just don't understand the fact that I can see these photos (and print them but only directly from iPhoto) but I can't do anything with them since, for some reason, the computer is seeing the file as empty.
    Hope that helps. Thanks.

  • I give up!  I just tried to answer a question on Adobe Reader and my computer choked!

    I have a work station with low RAM and have tried cutting off apps to conserve it.  However, now I have to ask what may be a "dumb" question:  Are there any Readers with extremely low RAM requirements, but as close to fully functional as the "real" application?  Thanks for any help possible!

    1 gig of RAM, Windows XP, 74 gb, and I'll take a look at the ftp site.  The

    I'm using Firefox 11 on an Intel iMac OS 10.6.8. This problem has just presented itself. First noticed it after intalling the latest Flash plug in 11.2.
    Then realised that in fact I wasn't able to read a pdf on a web site or watch videos that need Microsoft Silverlight. Tried cleaning temp files and cookies, and
    restoring permissions which were corrupted for Flash and Java script but to no avail. Anyone with any ideas please?

    Firefox does not support most plug-ins.
    But there is a workaround!
    Open Firefox and type in the address bar: about:config (no spaces) and click return. This gives you a warning that it might harm the application. Ignore that and click on 'I'll be careful, I promise' and you get the config file that you can edit - with great care.
    Look/search (scroll down) for: firefox.plugins.enabled
    Set it to true. (Double click it to toggle it)
    Now close Firefox, open it again, and Flash etc will now work, as it now uses the plug-ins that Safari has stored.

  • Interactive button in PDF file doesn't work with Adobe Reader for Mac nor Acrobat Pro

    Hello!
    I've to use a interactive form which has an interactive button that is supposed to send that form by email. If I open that PDF with my iPhone or iPad with the PDF Expert App, it works perfectly, but for any strange reason, when I try to open that same PDF in my Mac with Adobe Reader or Acrobat pro, that button doesn't do anything.
    Can this be a configuration error?
    Thanks!

    The problem is deeper than that. It's not reader. Now the same form I was creating in LifeCycle Designer ES2 yesterday, with the actions working perfectly, no longer work. None of the actions are working.
    Could it be realted to me trying to set the default version compatibility to Adobe 7. It gave me warnings, so I set it back to 9.
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • How can I get beyond the installation error point 1336 that occurs, after I installed Firefox 3.6.16, when I try to install the latest version update to Adobe Reader?

    After installing Firefox 3.6.16, I received an Adobe Reader update alert that there was an update available. I downloaded the update and then began the installation. During the installation, I received the following alert: "Error 1336. There was an error creating a temporary file that is needed to complete this installation. Folder: C:\Program Files \Mozilla Firefox\plugins\. System error code: 5." This prevents me from installing the update -- at every attempt! Is there a user friendly solution?

    I am happy to see another person is having this jerky scroll situation with the latest update to Firefox on October 27. I did check my I.E browser and '''THAT BROWSER''' still does the nice smooth scroll....let's get 'er fixed Mozilla! I know you can!
