Sorry, I misunderstood. I removed the shortcut and, for now, everythings OK.
Thanks,

You're welcome, if you decide you want it running again( but I can't
imagine why), just uninstall Adobe Reader, and reinstall it.

That's the Adobe Reader "Speed Launcher." Either re-install your Adobe
Reader, or remove the registry entry from
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run. Personally, I'd
remove the registry entry; the "Speed Launcher" provides no noticable
improvement in opening PDFs.
