To a noob would this look like a update for Adobe acrobat reader?
Scam.. ? not sure..
the first link takes me to
Code:
http://new-pdf-pro.com/

and the product also is promoting Open Office..

Anyone checked this mob out.. BTW If a company has to hijack anothers name to sell / promote their wares.. it is a scam.

Not Adobe, but using Adobe's name? Yeah, that is a scam.
