Try to download from here and it's clean just make sure you uncheck any unwanted add-ons during install!

I had that issue once and it has to do with Adobe Reader's sandbox have you tried to update the Printer Drivers? Have a look here first: http://blogs.adobe.com/security/2012/10/new-security-capabilities-in-adobe-reader-and-acrobat-xi-now-available.html and here: http://www.system-designs.com/adobereader9.htm so really it's not a WSA related issue and I have no problems here with the latest release of Adobe Reader on Win 7 x64 and WSA.
 
Thanks,
 
Daniel
