=== Extraction from EXE ===
You should prefer the direct MSI download and scip to [[#Customization]] but the MSI could also be extracted from the EXE.
Extraction will produce in your user profile's "\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe\Reader 9.1\Setup Files" directory the following files, which have to be copied to the %SOFTWARE% location:
setup.ini
The actual path of the "Setup Files"-dir depends on the used language in Windows. You can always find the correct path at "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders\Local AppData" in your registry!<source lang="dos">reg query "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders" /v "Local AppData"</source> === Customization === Then you are encouraged to download and install the "Adobe Customization Wizard 9" which allows to create a Microsoft Transform File (.MST) with many customizable parameters (EULA, updates, online services, directories, etc.):

If you would like the Adobe Reader 9 without AIR and acrobat.com you can get it from here[http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.0/enu/AdbeRdr90_en_US_Std.exe].== EXE installer ==
Or FTP [ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.0/enu/] and select the one with the postfix of Std == Adobe Reader 9, EXE installer == Adobe have not released an MSI for this so you have to use the self extracting/installing setup On appdeploy they provide. You can download it directly from here. http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.0/enu/AdbeRdr90_en_US.exe[http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.0/enu/AdbeRdr90_en_US.exe] I read on appdeploy write about some registry settings which stop all the EULA and other dialogue boxes so I we could apply these through a logon script. One line is for the machine key and the others are user specific. Machine.reg

This is the package I use. The first install command is to remove the previous 8.1.2 version so remove that if you don't need it (or just let the installer remove the older 8.1.2 version for you, as it does automatically and silently).
