Incorrect Information
No...It has been called Adobe Reader for years. Acrobat is entirely different, although both may use PDF files.

The product names have been getting mixed up for years.

the next posting says the name was changes with the recent version (8.0). Undoubtedly it is more bloated than ever.

Adobe is the new Symantec/McAfee resource hog. Plus it is vulnerable.

I wish someone would clarify which product is at risk: Reader, Acrobat, or both.
