Elaborating on Van's post, if you already had any version of Acrobat (including the freebie Reader) or the Acrobat Pro installed on your system before FM was installed, and if the IT dept. installed FM's version of Distiller when they installed FM, then you could have a mish-mash of a Distiller installation.

I don't know if these version numbers might be different on Vista vs. XP, but fwiw, if you look for the file "acrodist.exe" (usually in Program files > Adobe > Acrobat 9) and hover your mouse over the right side of the filename, you'll see a popup window that shows version.

My WinXP, FM8 p277 installation, with the full Acrobat Pro installation and =not= the FM installed version of Distiller, shows the acrodist version number as 9.0.0.332
