Adobe Reader - Installer/Updater

[storme 20]

Thought someone might find this useful

All you have to do is download AdbeRdr930_en_US.exe and AdbeRdrUpd932_all_incr.msp from Adobe put them and this program in the same directory and run this file. Afterward you should have Adobe reader installed and at version 9.3.2.

I've just done a rewrite on it from a more basic version so if you find any problems please let me know.

It's only been tested on Windows XP and Windows 7 32 bit. If you have a different OS and it doesn't work give me some details and if you've worked it out the solution.

If I find any problems I'll release an upgrade.
