If you've disabled JavaScript in Adobe Acrobat 7.x or Reader 7.x, you'll
probably get an annoying message every time you exit the program, stating
that, "This document contains JavaScripts," although the
document did not contain any JavaScript code.

Here are the steps to disable that message in Windows XP, short of enabling
JavaScript.
- Find the location of Acrobat's "JavaScripts" directory.
On Windows XP, this is C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application
Data\Adobe\Acrobat\7.0\JavaScripts\.
* Where <username> is the account that you've
logged into Windows with.
** Where C: is the hard disc drive or partition that Windows
XP is installed on.
- Rename the JavaScripts directory to JavaScripts.old.
- Create an empty text file named JavaScripts,
using Notepad, in the same directory that the JavaScripts directory was
in.
On Windows XP, this is C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application
Data\Adobe\Acrobat\7.0\.
Note: It appears that Adobe has corrected the above issue with the v7.0.5 update.
