I've bought some ebooks - password protected PDF files. Since the passwords are very long I wish Adobe Reader could save them for future usage.
Does anybody know a solution or workaround for this problem?
Thanks!

I shouldn't have installed Adobe Reader on my Mac. But now that I have, how do I set Safari to (go back to) show PDFs using Preview (as the inline PDF display plug-in) instead of Reader? Do I need to uninstall Reader?
