That said, we have simply upgraded systems to the latest version of Adobe Reader (will vary depending on your operating system. It worked successfully for us on a few Windows 7 workstations with version 10.1.3). You can get 10.1.3 here.
There is a patch that Adobe claims will resolve the issue. It can be found here.
As a temporary workaround, Protected Mode can be disabled, which some users claim resolved the issue for them.
You can turn off protected mode using following steps:
 1. Launch Reader X and select Edit->Preferences
2. Select General from left navigation
3. Under application startup uncheck “Enable Protected Mode at Startup”
Alternatively, you can remove Adobe Reader and install a free alternative such as FoxIt PDF Reader, which we find is more lightweight and has many of the most common features.
