    Suddenly and without any warning, I have this Adobe Reader X1 on my Taskbar. I've closed it and then it decides it wants to come back up there again.

    Any reason for this and is there a way one can stop it from coming up there?

    Right click on it to see if there is an UNpin option.

    No unpin button - just a close button. Any other suggestions, please fire away. Thanks!

    Which means the program is running...

    Check your startup options to disable it starting automatically?

    I would dump it completely & run a leaner version such as Foxit Reader. Make sure you uncheck the (Ask.com) Toolbar when installing.

    I've taken your advice Arie and totally uninstalled Adobe Reader and installed Foxit. Thanks for your feedback! :)
