Disable Acrobat Reader Update and more

If you want the tweak feature with Acrobat Reader, you're supposed to use the InstallShield Tuner 7.0 for Adobe Acrobat or InstallShield Tuner for Acrobat 8 if your using Acrobat Reader 8 instead of version 7.

However you could also just dig into the MSI to disable the update feature.
Some extra Adobe Reader repacking info can also be found at Appdeploy.

If you want to an easy way to download the Adobe packages like Reader, Flashplayer, Shockwave then go the the Adobe FTP-site. Reader downloads can be found at this folder.

You need to unpack the .exe to get the setup.ini the Wizard is asking when saving the transform-file or .MSI. Adobe Reader only comes as a .exe with the medior versions 7.x, 8.x, 9.x etc. Unpacking the .exe with the -nos_ne parameter will give you the .MSI and the .ini in the %temp%\Adobe folder, so don't download the standalone .MSI, otherwise you have to create your own .MST with Orca or Wise. I could not find the .exe for Adobe Reader v8.2 so I extracted the setup.ini from the Adobe Reader 8.1 executable.
