Installed 7.0 on my Dell Windows XP, but it won't open! If I double-click 
on a .pdf file I get an hourglass for 5 seconds, then nothing. No splash 
screen, no error messages, nothing.

If I single-click on the file, I see the mini version of the .pdf document 
in the Detail area of Windows Explorer, so something is working.

Any reason why the application itself never comes up?
