A number of issues reported recently (google ads problem, bulk upload, acrobat opening) and they are all linked by a common thing: norton firewall...
I sure hope I don't have to buy that POS to duplicate the problem. Not sure I could even if I did. Maybe I should update the forums with the new skin and see if that helps...

I am seeing the acrobat startup panel after being in the site for about 5 seconds.
My favorites link goes directly to the main forum page.
After the page loads graphically, there is hesitation while the acrobat exe runs.
My task manager shows the Acrobat exe running but there is no window of it being open.
I am not running Nortons of any kind. I am running McAfee Security center with anti-spam and Virus Protection.
No Hard firewall or soft firewall installed or in use.
Not complaining but I just wanted you guys to know of another instance where this is happening
If you have questions for me, please Pm me

krazik found the solution to this yesterday and I implemented a change to fix it. The problem occurs with Acrobat Reader 4.0 and below. 5.0+ is no problem. It's due to a bit of javascript that checks to see if you have the acrobat plugin. It causes 4.0 and below to open. I removed the check so it shouldn't happen anymore.
