I have XP Pro SP3, Internet Explorer 7 and Adobe Reader 9, and have this problem too. Tried to uninstall 9, got message that another installation was in progress, and to finish that installation. I couldn't find a way to fix that. Tried to delete Reader 9 one file at a time. Some couldn't be deleted. Was going to try to go back to Reader 8. Finally made it to the bottom of this thread, and saw Jerry's post above. It worked for me too! Too bad this answer can't be moved to the top. Here's the simple solution: 1. Open Adobe 9 2. Select Help on main Toolbar 3. Select "Repair Adobe Reader Installation"
