OK, we found a way to get around this that I'm posting here so that others who encounter the same error might be able to install the product:

Proceed to attempt to install Reader 8. When the error dialog shows up DO NOT cancel it.

Instead procede to open the temp folder:

C:\Users\{username}\AppData\LocalLow\Netopsystems\temp\Adobe Reader 8.0

Copy all the contents out of here to a new folder somewhere on your C driver. e.g. C:\adobe

Close the error dialog.

Run the Setup.exe from your copy (C:\adobe\setup.exe).

Acrobat reader will now install.

Delete your copy folder (delete c:\adobe)

Job complete.

Devs - could you maybe look into a full solution for this?

Thanks.
