You probably have the same problem as me. You're likely using a limited user account and the pdf file type appears to no longer be mapped to acroread. Most likely, if you try as an administrator, it will work fine (it does for me on Win XP Pro), so it must be a protection setting somewhere. Now if only I'd know which one and how to fix it... :-(

PS for Adobe: It is a BIG shame on you that this blooper escaped your labs! One would think that by now all the big software companies would be aware of the importance of not using admin accounts for everything and therefore that they'd test their stuff accordingly.
