Adobe made sure that regular users have a hard time if they try to download the Reader installer. The website allows only to install the app through it's Download Manager. However what if the download manager simply fails? In my case it did and no workaround seemed to work. There's however a small "backdoor" which allows you to get the offline installer after all. Change the UserAgent string of your browser to some non-Windows variant (there're extensions for Firefox to do this) or use a non-Windows PC to download the Adobe Reader installer. Instead of popping up the install window of Download Manager, it'll give you the real thing (the offline installer EXE).
