Great reader, fast and smooth, easy to use The Ask toolbar A great reader, easy to use. But I do not like the aggressive way that I am virtually forced to install the ASK toolbar. Without this it would have five stars

Download, install and function all seamless. I have no awareness of issues to dislike. I have a problem with questionnaires like this.Peeps like me are invited to comment in multiple boxes. Only AFTER a comment has been made does a 'nag' comment pop up telling us there's a limit to the characters.Do this beforehand!As a sign of my irritation, I will NOT respond to' discourteous 'cnet' q's in the future. You've lost me as a willing participant....

Fast to open and use. Stable. They try and try in the installation to make you take their ASK toolbar and thier toolbar. Evne in custom you have to uncheck several times in the installation or you end up with the sponsored toolbars.

It takes up much less space than Adobe and does the same thing. I have to have both Adobe and Foxit on my computer because as I mentioned Foxit does not work on all PDF files. If Foxit could make the software available for all PDF files it would be great.

Lot of good features, more than I need, highlight to copy and paste erratic Good program to have but, for my needs, doesn't replace adobe reader.

It's easy to use. The price is right. I don't have to wait as long for the PDF's to come up. None, so far.

IT shows the pdf files really fast, which is exactly what i need. None. I see some complaints from other posters about the ASK toolbar... people should read better the options during the installation, and skip the one that says "install the ask toolbar". It works, it's fast, and it's free. That's what i wanted and got. Don't opt in for the ASK toolbar if you don't want it (during the installation process).

It actually can be installed and updated (unlike Adobe Reader). Loads in a mere fraction of the time that it takes for Adobe Reader to load. None that I can think of. After years of using Adobe Reader this program was a breath of fresh air. I was having trouble updating Adobe Reader 9. I fought with it for almost a week until I searched for a PDF Reader alternative. As I had mentioned, load time. In Adobe Reader you have to wait a bit. With this software it loads very quickly. No lagging and waiting for everything to load (whatever Adobe loads).

@Virtual_ManPL You fk moron. At least read the change log before posting such a retarded comment. 'Many Bug Fixes' Fixes some bugs from previous versions including an issue where Ask Toolbar may be installed by default.
