Acrobat Reader Version 7.0.8
XP operating system
2GB ram

Since yesterday i have not been able to read PDFs. The same document that worked yesterday can not be read today. The file opens correctly however in the document letters are now symbols and Greek letters. On some documents its only half the document. This happens with PDF's on my hardrive or ones that i download from the internet.

I unistalled and redownloaded acrobat reader however no luck. I tried two different antivirus programs and neither of them came up with anything. I tried printing the document and it also produces the jibberish characters. The same documents on a different computer work fine.

Anyone know of anything???
