Saving scanned PDF

Hi, I recently upgraded from Acrobat 8 Pro to 9 Pro. With version 8, when I created a PDF from scanner, the save window would pop up after I hit the scan button but before the actual scan.
I got used to telling my computer what to name the file and where to put it before it actually scanned the document. While it was scanning, I would go and work on other things.

Now with Acrobat 9, it doesn't prompt me where to save it and what to name it, it just scans the document. I've tried "custom scan" etc. but can't make it ask me where to save before the scan starts. Now after multiple pages have taken a considerable amount of time to scan, I must stop what I'm doing, save and name my new PDF.
Can anyone tell me if I can make it ask me about saving my document before it scans, like it did before? I was thinking of going back to version 8 but read that hackers are targeting this type of software and for security reasons, I should keep version 9.
After I hit the scan button, I really need to be done with each document. HELP!!

Oh I use Windows 7 Ultimate if that matters.
Thanks in advance
