I am working again.. Not sure which part of this cured the problem but this is what I did.

Uninstalled every trace of Adobe using control panel/add and remove programs, delete any remaining folders left behind by the uninstall eg C:\Program Files\Adobe, run regedit and search for "adobe" delete anything found, run a registry cleaner (http://www.pctools.com/registry-mechanic/) $19.99 I allowed it to "fix" everything it found, reboot, installed Adobe v6.

This is a very drastic way to fix what you would expect to be a simple problem. It may work if you install the latest version of Adobe but I was playing safe with one I had working before I started on the upgrade path.

Hope this helps
