When re-installing make sure virus program is turned off. 

After re-install -  close all IE windows Open Adobe 

Edit | Preferences 

Uncheck "Display PDF in Browser" Close Adobe. Now open IE and try again. 

Also check - Tools | Folder Options | File Types "PDF"  Click the Advance button. 

Click on "Open" and click the Edit button 

Where it says "Application used to perform action:" make sure it reads as follows - 

"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 5.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" "%1"  

I didn't add any quotes so it should be exactly the same. (Directory may be different - you can use the browse button to get to the "acrord32.exe" file as well.
