The last time I installed Foxit, it tried to install spyware on my computer. At least with Adobe Reader all the crap comes from the same company.
Evince on Unbuntu has worked great for the past few years for me.

That was when I nuked all traces of Reader off my system. Not only is their software crappy, bloated, and slow, but it's also a crapware vector to boot. If I were a dev on the Reader team, I'd be pretty depressed about my life - millions of people cursing your name, eviscerating your product in forums and boards everywhere, everyday... and they're right.
