    Default Acrobat Pro 8 Slow as Christmas & Crashes a Lot

    Can't seem to get 10 minutes of work in 8.1.2 without it getting hung up. Have to force quit (Acrobat not responding). That's especially frustrating since it takes about 5 minutes just to open a PDF Review file posted on my iDisk. Sometimes can't even force quit. Have to do a hard boot.

    Done all the usual troubleshooting (updated, repaired permissions, rebooted dozens of times).

    Seems to also want to crash my Safari if it's open.

    Desperate and frustrated.

    Config: Mac 10.5.2 on MacBook Pro 2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.
