I am having the same problem.  Using NT 4.0 Wkstn, SP6a, IE 6.0.  Using licensed version of Acrobat 5.0 (recently upgraded to 5.0.5 -- though I did not uninstall 5.0 before running the 5.0.5 setup program. 

EWH32.API is installed in the "plug-ins" folder, though the entire Acrobat set of stuff is not installed in the default location. 

PDF documents open ok in Netscape 4.75, but not in IE 6.0.  If I uncheck the "Display PDF in Browser" button, then PDF documents do display in the Acrobat Reader window. 

Wonder what's happening here?
