I am trying to install Reader on my Win2000 Pro machine and I am getting the following error... 

Setup has detected uninstall shield is in use. Please close uninstall shield and restart setup. 

Uninstall shield is not in use on my system to my knowlege. I checked task manager and am sure the only app running was setup. I tried rebooting several times. I tried looking for uninstall shield in as a process to end it and couldnt find it there either. Can anyone help me?? 

Thanks 
Hugh
