Whenever I activate a PDF link within IE, it loads in
reader version 4.0 even though I have installed the
latest version (6.x) of Acrobat Reader. I have the full
version of Acrobat 4.0 installed for other reasons. Any
idea how I can force IE to use the latest version of
Reader?

Also, once a PDF is opened and I close it, it totally
shuts down IE including any other windows of it that are
open.

Thoughts/suggestions muchly appreciated.

Thnx.
