I installed SP2 for Win XP and Adobe Reader 6.0.1 in italian (upgrade
6.0.3).
PDF.OCX causes Internet Explorer to show an error dialog box stating
"Internet Explorer has encountered a problem with an add-on" and then
Internet Explorer shuts down when you select any of the options or
close the box.
I removed adobe reader and reinstalled it but nothing have changed.
Thank you for your help.

Reader uses an active X control to view PDF's in the browser.  The default 
XPSP2 security settings don't like Active X controls.

This adobe doc may help you fix it:
