I just downloaded Reader 5.0 to my Thinkpad with Windows ME running, and after I chose to install to C:\Program Files, it put itself there and called itself "EXTRACT".  When I double click on it, it asks what application to use to open it.  I don't have a lot of software on the system, but what type of file is it and what do I need to install it and call it "READER"?  Thanks in advance!  Greg
