Hi Lynn :-)
Thanks for the update. Post back and let us know how you do. :-)
Now that you have reinstalled the trail vesion, you will need to uninstall
that too, before the old one. Then reinstall the old version first, and see
if that will get you back to square one without the trail version.
In doing some research, I found that thee were quite a few others who were
having problems with the 7 trail version, although, none I could find with
your type of problem. Thus, it may be some sort of glitch in the program
install/uninstall programming.
Hope this helps.
Jan :)

Thank you so much. It is driving me crazy. I have to order something
using
PayPal and of course can't.
I will try all you have said. I have already done the other things.
Also, I got the Adobe Acrobat Trial back on the computer. Also changed
from
IE to Mozilla FireFox. Now I can see the progress bar go four dots before
it
says timed out. I still don't get through but I don't see the page cannot
be
displayed with FireFox.
I have just about given up. I am not on the network though my son keeps
saying I am. I remember when he set me up my cable is off their wireless
somehow though I have a cable in, but I do not have to log in to their
network on that computer as I do on this one. Confusing, but I think that
computer goes direct to the internet via cable which has a firewall I
assume.

I am doing some further research on this, but, for the moment, disable
the
auto updates, you can turn it back on after you have resolved the
problem.

Put a check in the box next to "Turn off automatic updating"

Did you install the older version of the Reader using the Run from the
website, or did you save it to your hard drive and install it from there?
If you by chance saved it to your hard drive before installing (always
the
best way to install when possible), and you still have the install file
on
your hard drive, or have access to it on the website, then try
uninstalling
the older version of the Reader as well. Then try reinstalling the older
version, saying YES if asked to overwrite any existing Adobe files, and
see
if that will help
Also....you may want to keep the information below handy and install it
after you have managed to fully clean the Adobe stuff. It is a PDF
reader
that does most of what Adobe Reader can do, and without all the
intrusive,
bloatware tendrils. I got tired of all the junk from Adobe Reader and
use
it as my default PDF reader.

I did two restores, one to the beginning of January when it was working.
That didn't work, so I went back to current date. HP had me go back to
the
earliest date available and that was 12/13. That did not work, but it
also
reloaded the Adobe configuration files and I don't know how to resolve
that.
I am running XP HOme edition with Service Pack 2.
I am on an old computer to get this e-mail. I cannot access it on the
computer that is affected. How annoying. I already did most of what
you
suggested, but just in case there is something in there I haven't
tried, I
will do that now and let you know.
Thank you for your prompt answer. I have spent all my free time over
the
last few weeks just trying to figure out why I cannot log in to any of
my
paid subscriptions, or MS Update. BUT MS is auto updating me during
this
time somehow. Very very confusing.

You don't mention the version of Windows you are using, but, if Win ME
ot
P,
then you might try doing a System restore to a date prior to when you
installed the trail program and see if that helps.
Otherwise, try the following and see if it will help:

I recently ran a trial of Adobe Acrobat 7.0. When the trial was over
my
already installed version no longer worked, so I had to uninstall
7.0
and
install Reader just to access .pdf files. How annoying. And Adobe
has
not
responded to my problem with their successful uninstall of the trial
or
the
inability to use my older product after trial.
That is not the problem.
The problem is that since then I cannot access HTTPS sites. I
cannot
even
log in on the computer to Microsoft updates and get error 0x80072EFD
which
is
a firewall error. So I uninstalled Norton Firewall and now
Microsoft
Firewall is running.
I can log in to non-secure sites, but Yahoo now won't let me visit
MyYahoo
since they are also now SSL.
Please help. Is there anyway to find out what is causing this?
If it is a missing .dll or other file, how do I resolve it?
I have tried restoring to an earlier date and though this was
working
then,
I cannot access HTTPS even then. I know it was working in January
as I
paid
bills online mid month. Now I cannot pay bills on line or even
visit
my
paid
subscription sites.
HELP! I am writing from my old computer which is running MS98, new
computer
with XP won't even let me log in to this service.
