I have Acrobat Reader 11.0.x installed on my MacBook Pro with Mac OS X 10.8.2. Every few days Adobe Reader Updater launches automatically and a dialog appears saying: 'An update for Adobe Reader to version 10.1.x is available. Do you want to install it now?'

New Updates released as a part of adobe reader 9 all versions so remove security risk from your adobe reader by updating it. Adobe Acrobat X Standard (Adobe Acrobat 10) Acrobat X is a latest application by adobe systems for editing PDF files.

I do not have Acrobat Reader 10.x installed, so if I click 'yes' the upgrader eventually fails, if I click 'no' the dialog reappears in a few days.

The crazy part is that I've repeatedly tried deleting the Acrobat Reader Updater application itself, but it simply reappears a few days later (regardless of whether I reboot or log out, I usually stay logged in for days/weeks unless there's some reason to restart). There must be some other Adobe software that is reinstalling it. The location of the installer doesn't change:

The app itself is version 10.1.4

Again, if I delete this file, it simply reappears within a day or so, and yet no visible reinstallation takes place.

So I'm trying to figure out what is reinstalling this app and how to make it go away permanently.

Any suggestions?

Acrobat Reader 9 For Mac Won Update

I've tried deleting Acrobat Reader 11.x, and reinstalling, but that does nothing. And there is no Acrobat Reader 10.x app on my volume. It almost seems like I need to run an Acrobat Reader 10.x uninstaller, but there is no such thing.
