Hi

I've reinstalled Adobe Reader 7.0.8 and a very small problem.

Adobe Reader is presented at Start/All Progams with a simple Microsoft-Icon not with it's Adobe-icon. Trying to change it with the properties isn't successful, the buttons to change aren't highlighted.

Searching the registry showed an error, but not solving my problem.

The key [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\acrobat\DefaultIcon]="C:\Programme\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Acrobat\AcroRd32.exe" points to a non-existing path, the AcroRd32.exe is stored in "reader". "Acrobat" doesn't exist. This is a wrong installation, I've checked it with other persons who have the same entry. I corrected it, but it wasn't solving my problem. I still have a little windows-icon inside the start-menu. How can I fix this? I'm using Windows XP Home SP2 up to date.
