Disabling Acrobat 8 IE integration

Hi

Does anyone knows of a way to disable acrobat IE intergration, so when I click on a pdf file, it will ask to save instead of opening automatically? In previous version, there is a nppdf32.dll file to delete, but for version 8, it does not work anymore.

Darn, I hate Acrobat, but the other viewers not ready to replace it.

cranioscopical:
Failing all else, could you write a little script to pop up a requester and -- if desired -- run acrobat on the file?   You could then set .pdf's to open with that instead of Acrobat itself.

PhilB66:
Try to disable with ToolbarCop. It's a browser extensions manager which can disable or eliminate the following browser add-ons selectively from Internet Explorer:


* Browser Helper Objects (BHO)

*
* Toolbars

*
* Standard Toolbar buttons

*
* Context menu Extensions

*
* Download managers

*
* Protocol Handlers

*
* Horizontal / Vertical Explorer Bars (side-search bars)

*
* Startup applications originating from RUN registry keys.

lanux128:
apparently you can create a "transform" file when installing. just googled and untested: Deploying Adobe Reader 8 .x

justice:
http://download autoruns and disable the ie integration and browser helper object for acrobat reader should also do the trick.
