As part of TeXlive there is a program called pdfopen (and a companion
program called pdfclose) which may (or may not) help you out if you wish to
continue using acroread.
I am the last maintainer (as far as I know!) of the Linux version of this
program for TeXlive. I never use windows, but my understanding is there is
(or was) a version for windows. You might want to look to see if you can
find this.
Cheers.
