How to kill annoying Adobe Update

[Hedley Finger]

Adobe Update thinks it's in the middle of downloading an updated app. 
Every time I boot my Windows computer, it appears, and informs that it 
is completing a download -- except there is no filename or app shown in 
the pending downloads pane.
How can I kill this off permanently? Presumably, downloading Adobe 
Reader latest version and installing it would reinstall Adobe Updater.
