Download Adobe Reader without using Adobe DLM

When you go to Adobe's site to download Adobe Reader in Firefox or IE, they force you to install their 'download manager' add-on. Why? Not really sure. Perhaps they are using it for statistics, or something else.

(In IE, they also try and bundle the Google Toolbar - the nerve!!)

Most of us have enough garbage on our PC's and don't need yet another useless (well, single-use) addon!

So here's a direct link to the latest version of Adobe Reader for Windows: http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/10.x/10.1.3/en_US/AdbeRdr1013_en_US.exe (updated 27/7/2012)

Update: If you are using Chrome, the DLM download is not triggered. Go here to get Adobe Reader.

Should be fairly easy to guess the path as they release new versions.

Homework for mac users: figure out the corresponding URL!
