I have installed, uninstalled, and reinstalled v7 3 times now, and find 
numerous problems; I have reverted to a 6x release, and it is stable.

The most apparent problem is that a link to a pdf file from a PowerPoint 
slide show will not open.  If the Reader is opened first (WHY should you 
have to do that???), the link works better, but not the way it should.

Beyond that, the installation corrupted my system, and disabled some 
"background" functions, running from the system tray.  Included were the 
Google  local search, my firewall, Microsoft AntiSpam, and Spybot S & D.  I 
am very diligent about "pest control", so I'm confident that nothing of that 
sort was causing problems.  Further, I uninstalled v6, and set a restore 
point (Thank God!) before doing the v7 install, and, once uninstalled, the 
restore point brought me back to where I should have been all along.

My advice to my students and customers?  AVOID ADOBE READER V7.

Agreed!  Adobe has a lot of fixing to do om v.7.  It sure doesn't seem ready
for prime time!
