Download Adobe Reader XI 11.0.08

Adobe has released an update to version 11 of Acrobat. Acrobat consists of the commercial package to create PDF documents and the free reader to be able to read them. With Reader it is now also possible to create simple PDF documents via an online tool. Version 11.0.08 should fix a security issue that only exists in the Windows version. The OS X version has therefore not been updated.
