It's weird that he recommends Foxit at the end of the article, which is also bundled with a ton of crap these days. (I was shocked the last time I installed it.) Then I found Sumatra -- open source FTW.
- hazzen 17y agoOld versions of Foxit were ad-free. Only the newer versions have turned into some kind of crapware mess. The same thing happened to BSPlayer (VLC-like media player). None of these programs force updates, so someone who hasn't updated their program for years will blindly reconmend them to friends, only to get laughed at for proposing such crapware.
- gxs 17y agowow I learned something today. I've been using foxit forever and you just made me feel like a douchebag because when people ask, I always recommend it. Indeed, I've been using the same old version for a long time.
- marcamillion 17y agoI haven't installed Foxit in a while, but that's what I have had installed on my machine since forever and have never had these problems. Perhaps they too have become corrupt...but maybe next time I will take many people's recommendations and try Sumatra.
