Description

Since this version of Acrobat is over 10 years old and has access to some user data there should be some way to prevent "accidental" use, if you get what I mean.
A less tech savvy person could open their software store and install this without noticing that it's an ancient insecure version and open a malicious PDF in it, exploits like that exist. A possible way of preventing a case like this would be a popup to warn people on first launch (possibly implemented using a simple launch script and something like Zenity) with a "Don't warn me again" box.
