MSI file for Adobe Reader, Flash Player and Shockwave Player
Form: http://blog.danovich.com.au/2010/02/15/msi-file-for-adobe-reader-flash-player-and-shockwave-player/
I’ve often needed to obtain the MSI or a single EXE file for an enterprise deployment of Adobe Reader, Flash Player or Shockwave Player. Adobe now provide a single web page where you can request a license to download these files:

Don’t worry – there is no cost to it. The form only took me a few minutes to fill out and then a couple of minutes later I received an email with links to download the MSIs and EXEs.
A worthy side note is the installation parameters for a silent install – for the MSIs obviously you can use something like ‘msiexec /i filename.msi /qb-!’, but Reader only comes as an executable - use ‘AdbeRdr930_en_US.exe /sAll’ for a silent install.
