We are trying to selective disable some of the Online features, pretty much everything excepting the SIGN feature.
We suspect the ONLINE feature may be causing random hangs, however the registry key seems to only disable ALL of the online features, and not selectively.
The symptoms we have seen are random hangs. We are running on 11.0.17 of Acrobat XI.
The hangs actually happen when you start Acrobat Pro or Reader, click OPEN... and it hangs for about 2 or 3 minutes. Eventually it will bring up the OPEN FILE dialog.
One solution that seems to be a workaround is if we RESET the IE11 browser, the problem seems to disappear.
The other caveat is we are going through a proxy (Websense), but again in 98% of the cases it normally is not a problem.
Any advise or thoughts appreciated.
