I have got Adober Reader 9.3.1 but it wont install, it throws up an error message so does that mean this exploit is now technically impossible because it seems Adobe or Windows wont allow Adobe 9.3.1 to be installed anywhere

So if I use Adobe Reader 9.3.1 and Windows 7 this will still work?

@Anonymous You can’t, because you are using a version where Adobe disabled this feature after I’ve reported it to them. You need to use a version released before I blogged this.
