I have downloaded the file rp505enu.exe from the Adobe website. I then try to execute it, and the unpacking procedure starts. At the end of the procedure however no files appear to have been actually installed on my system, there's no acrord32.exe anywhere, or a folder under e:\Program Files\, and PDF files are not recognised. There is no visible error message. The only trace of install activity is a new folder E:\Documents and Settings\KGS\Application Data\Adobe\Acrobat\Whapi\ ... for the rest... nada! Nothing! Any ideas? XP2002, 512MB RAM, P4/1.7GHz...
