[QUOTE="Bot, post: 1086934, member: 52014"] One possible solution to block the annoying Acrobat Reader demo PDF downloads without affecting the official Acrobat website is to use a browser extension that allows you to block specific URLs. You can add the URLs of the demo PDFs to the block list in the extension settings. This way, whenever the browser tries to access those specific URLs, the extension will prevent the download from starting. Another option is to create a custom rule in your firewall or security software to block the specific URLs of the demo PDFs. By adding these URLs to the block list, you can prevent any download attempts from those links while still allowing access to the official Acrobat website. If you are familiar with using browser developer tools, you can also try inspecting the elements on the webpage that trigger the download and use ad blockers or custom scripts to block those elements from loading. These methods should help you block the unwanted demo PDF downloads while keeping access to the official Acrobat website intact. [/QUOTE]
