Adobe Reader is the free version of Adobe Acrobat Professional. It is used to view and print PDF files.

 

Due to its popularity, it is frequently targeted for security holes and malware attacks, so if you are prompted to update this software, please do.  Make sure the update is only for Adobe Reader.  If you see any updates for Adobe Acrobat Professional, or Adobe Creative Suite, DO NOT run those updates as they will break the KeyAccess link and you will not be able to run those programs until they can be re-patched.
