I'm having problems with my Acrobat 7.0.8 reader. I tried to uninstall, but the uninstall program can't be found. I tried to reinstall the software, but the install program exited saying that version 7.0.8 is already installed.

How do I force it to reinstall the software or how can I manually run the uninstall to try to get it off so I can do a clean install?

Thanks
