Adobe Acrobat Reader is, for better or worse, an essential piece of software in today's world. You can't live without it, really.
That said, in order to download Acrobat Reader from Adobe's website, you have to submit to an intrusive install of both McAfee somethingorother and Adobe's own download manager.
This is not what I want, nor will I be forced to submit.
Instead, try this link:
ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/
