Acrobat and Reader 5.0 look much closer for, and reject, minor discrepancies between the PDF document properties and the exact PDF specification. There are some non-Adobe programs out there that do create "defective" PDFs according to version 5, but can still be read with earlier versions. 

Open the document in version 4, then select File>document Info>General and see what's listed as Producer.
