How can I prevent stale 'Adobe Reader' hijacking false

In IE, I will get a false "Adobe Reader update" screen of newupdate24.com. The screen seems official. I clicked on the update message and have loaded up with viruses and malware.

The IE phishing filter is enabled and has no effect.

It is a kind of malware or phishing. I just had an 'update to Adobe Reader professional"in Chrome.

I'm sure you're probably right about that but, it is not a matter of Reader or Adobe. You want to start looking around for a forum or site that has people who deal with this sort of thing to support. Good luck.

  • How can I prevent the Adobe Reader DC trying to open the files I'm trying to drag to a folder?

    Setting the screen double here. If I have a file on my left screen and I want to fly over this file in the file browser I have on the right screen while I have also another pdf open to DC in fullscreen only on the right side also, and even if the file Explorer is in front, DC will try to open the pdf file and my file will not be moved. If I try to do the same thing with DC not mode full-screen, the file is moved without problem. Looks more like a glitch than anything, but if anyone has any suggestions on how to solve this problem, it would be great.

    Thank you!

    Figured it out.

  • How can I get the Adobe Reader software, but NOT the "DC" Cloud version?

    For years, I appreciated the help of the original Adobe Reader that would allow me to view PDFs via Windows Viewer or my other software, just, as I used to be able to do. Now, it seems that Adobe requires this convoluted "DC" on users version. I don't want to. I don't need all these so-called features. I don't want to "be in the clouds! -I want just a basic version that allows to display a clean image, strong, with zoom tools, etc.

    Where can I get what I need, please? Of course, I hope for a version that has the day in safety.

    I will appreciate it if someone would provide a URL to the "appropriate" download location link, unless Adobe no longer provides what some users want or need.

    Safari is an Apple product.  Safari for iOS has its own built-in PDF generator and doesn't require any 'plug-ins' to view the PDF.

  • How can I prevent the software Adobe Reader crashing on my non privileged user?

    I am running Windows 7 and I need to create a user non-preferred on my computer. When I open a PDF file, it crashes almost instantly (I can view the document three seconds approximately). If I just open Adobe Reader without a PDF and click on Edit-> Preferences, it crashes. If I open a PDF file in any browser, it crashes.

    What I was able to guess, it seems that Adobe Reader tries to read the registry of my privileged user. I have tried to uninstall Adobe Reader, temporarily to grant privileges to my non-privileged user, install Adobe Reader on this user, and then remove the permissions, but the accident is still happening. The only way to stop Adobe Reader to plant is to start the program as an administrator, or change the type of administrator account. How can I prevent the software Adobe Reader crashing on my non privileged user?

    I had corruption of the registry "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders", where many of the keys have values set for the directories of the user of my administration. I did not write exactly which keys have been corrupted and causing the accident, but once I have finished all the fixing Adobe Reader worked perfectly and I was able to open the preferences.
