  6. You will see a screen with 3 radio - pick “Remove Completely”
  7. This process will take from about a minute to as long as 30 min, it depends on your processor performance and the speed of your connection.
  8. After the process is over you will receive a confirmation message.
  9. From this point you will need a new Adobe Reader
  10. Go to http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html
