Or you could just use Acrobat Reader 5.  I'm not sure they changed a lot in the
new version, other than the ad-image in the corner :)

We have some opac and database dedicated terminals that we don't want the
public to use for general web browsing. We are using public web browser to shut
down address bar, etc. but both types of terminals also require the use of
adobe acrobat. The new version of acrobat comes with an advertisement button
that is a link to the adobe site (top right).
Our youngest patrons quickly figured out how to use this as a hole to the
greater web.

Does anyone have any idea how to shut this down?
