+====== Secure Adobe Reader ======
+This is not a silver bullet for Adobe Reader security, but it will prevent the current most popular ways of being exploited.  Basically, it will just disable Javascript and Flash within Reader.  Personally, I think it's ridiculous that Adobe even added this functionality to PDF's.
+**NOTE:** Do not do this if the PDF's you need to utilize require this functionality.
+===== Disabling Javascript can be done in a couple of different ways: either the settings within reader or through the registry. =====
+  - Go to Edit, Preferences Then in the left-pane, navigate to JavaScript. The right-side of the window will update to JavaScript preferences. You should uncheck Enable Acrobat JavaScript.
+  - <file>reg add "HKCU\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\#.#\JSPrefs" /v bEnableJS /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f</file>
+      Where #.# is the version of Reader you are using.
+===== Disabling Flash requires the deleting/renaming of a couple of files. =====
+On Microsoft Windows, delete or rename these files:
+<file>"%ProgramFiles%\Adobe\Reader <version_#>\Reader\authplay.dll"
+"%ProgramFiles%\Adobe\Reader <version_#>\Reader\rt3d.dll"</file>
+For Apple Mac OS X, delete or rename these files:
+<file>"/Applications/Adobe Reader 9/Adobe Reader.app/Contents/Frameworks/AuthPlayLib.bundle"
+"/Applications/Adobe Reader 9/Adobe Reader.app/Contents/Frameworks/Adobe3D.framework"</file>
+For GNU/Linux delete or rename these files (locations may vary among distributions):
+<file>"/opt/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/intellinux/lib/libauthplay.so"
+"/opt/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/intellinux/lib/librt3d.so"</file>
