The latest version of Acrobat Reader has some pretty good security restrictions so an upgrade is a good idea.

However if you work on a network which has 512kbps internet connection you don't want to be running Adobe's Down Load Manager 30 times and sucking the files off the internet for each workstation you upgrade which is the default when getting Acrobat from http://get.adobe.com/reader/

It's better to grab an exe or msi file from the Adobe FTP Server and then use that to upgrade / install your workstations.

To get the latest version FTP to ftp.adobe.com using the command line:

ftp ftp.adobe.com
# Enter anonymous as the user
# Enter your email address as the password
cd pub/adobe/reader
ftp> ls # to get a listing of different platform options
200 PORT command successful.
