I second WaIIy's recommendation:
Foxit Reader (freeware) a more satisfactory programme:

I recently downloaded adobe acrobat reader 7.08.
When it try to open a pdf file it aways opens in acrobat 5.0, which
I also have on the computer.
Acrobat 5. will not open the file , and I get an error message to
upgrade which I did to 7.0
How do I get 7.0 to open the files , is there something I need to
change ? I am using Window XP Home
Thanks for any help on this . Moe

Get rid of the bloat of Acrobat and install Foxit.
