I would suggest using VLC over MPC because there is less codecs you have to worry about, its all in one, and it will auto-update (or at least ask the user for yes to) and will keep it up to date so he can watch any movie possible. Instead of Adobe Reader, i would recommend installing FoxIt. I find it loads/runs faster and has a lot lower likely hood of crashing/freezing as per problems i've had with Adobe Reader on different computers (none that were my own, but older POSs)
