Thanks for the help. I did what you said, in addition to a little research, and all my issues were ironed out. I figured out that one reason I was seeing Adobe files all over the place after I first uninstalled Reader v9 and its components, reloaded and uninstalled again, was that Vista had not caught up with me in clearing out my index file. Rebuilding it after the second install/uninstall, all these annoying bits of software disappeared. Hard drive was clean and ready for the Reader install from the link you gave me. I now know what an index file is...had never heard of this beforehand! Happy New Year to you.
