Illustrator 10 is giving error messages that claim it can't find the plug-ins folder 

[error loading plugins]  

when it is launching during the splash screen. 

After prompting "ok" it gives a second message  

[Acrobat PDF file format is having difficulties].  

I disagree, I'm the one having difficulties. I can't seem to get any work done. 

When Illustrator finally is launched I receive even more messages. (It's as though it's angry at me).  

[Can't Open the illustration. The illustration contains an illegal or misplaced operator 

Offending Operator: "Tr" Context: 0 To 1001295.9004556.24950 Tp 0 Tv TP -50.21620 Td 0 Tr] 

After the file is opened most of the artwork is totally missing! What the heck is going on??? Illustrator 8.0 did the same thing. I upgrades just to avoid this problem in 8.0, but here it is again. 

Please help...
