Acrobat 10.1.1 update problems

Happy Monday Everyone,

We have suppression turned on for our Mater Collection installation. It was created using Adobe's AAMEE software. Shortly afterwards, we learned that 10.1 Acrobat came out. So, we needed to turn on the feature lockout function to suppress the auto updating functions. This worked well, but now we are seeing standard users getting asked to update Acrobat 10 to 10.1.1. When logging in as Admin, this prompt is not there.

I have changed the permission on the feature lockout function so all users are treated equally. The update is still asking and prompting our users.

Anyone else having issues with Acrobat 10? If people are not admins, they shouldn't be bothered with updates. Those should be handled by Apple Remote Desktop or Casper.

Thanks in advance for any suggestion.

Mick

    You could write a script that deletes /Applications/Adobe Acrobat X
    Pro/Adobe Acrobat Pro/Contents/Resources/Built-in/Updater.acroplugin/ so
    that the users do not get the prompt for updating. I then push the package
    with Casper at reboot and have the script run after to re-delete the updater
    plugin.
