Wisptis.exe consumes GDI handles

Adobe Acrobat 6.0 now uses the wisptis.exe process (I have no idea why).
What I see is that this process starts consuming GDI handles until Windows
XP is exhausted. Last night for example I killed wisptis.exe at 3,500 GDI
handles (system total 13,200). Of course at this level other program fail to
initiate (menus fail etc).

Is this a bug with wisptis.exe or a problem with Acrobat reader?

Thanks,

da
