I'm sure this must have been asked before but I can't find it.
I have just installed Acrobat 5. Since doing so everytime I view a PDF file it opens Acro 5 instead of Acro reader 7.
I have uninstailled Acrobat reader 7 and reinstalled it. However, it still won't work.
I am running into all kinds of problems as a result. Sometimes it's just a little box that pops up to tell me I do not have the latest version of Reader so things may not be shown as they should be.
Ot the more annoying box that keeps popping up when I click a pdf file from google.The message tells me that IE now has to close and then it closes.

Any ideas what I should do?
Apologies if this issue has already been address.
