Posted February 14, 200718 yr Administrator Paste this code into a Notepad and save it as FoxitAdFree.reg Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Foxit Software\Foxit Reader\MainFrame] "AdvertiseIndex"="0" "ShowEditorAd_908"="0" "ShowReaderAd_908"="0" "ShowTypewriterAd_908"="0" "ShowPOAd_908"="0" "ShowSDKAd_908"="0"
February 14, 200718 yr ...and for those that are wondering what to do next. Right click the saved .reg file and click Merge. Nice tweak Tarun, thanks.
February 15, 200718 yr Foxit PDF is adware? I had no idea, luckily I didn't download it then. :happybday:
February 15, 200718 yr Author Administrator No, it is not adware. It simply has a small (tiny really) segment that displays an animated image talking about Foxit Pro, and you can easily disable it.
February 17, 200718 yr Interesting... but I thought I'd let you guys know that Adobe Reader 8 is actually pretty good - it starts up in less than a week and has some great features... Foxit is no longer as good, with the frequent memory leaks and lock-ups =/
February 17, 200718 yr Author Administrator I've never experienced any memory leaks or lockups with Foxit.
February 24, 200718 yr I've never experienced any memory leaks or lockups with Foxit. Happened to me around 1 in 5 times. Not sure what version, though.
