REAL BEHAVIOR AND REAL SOLUTION

BEHAVIOR
--------
Basically, after decompressing all files in
  "{USERPROFILE}\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Setup Files"
the installtion process want to start SETUP.EXE.
I don't know why, but most of times it find another file named "SETUP.EXE" rather in other location that it decompress and start it. It looks like it find in the "INSTALLPATH" folder or anything else.
In my case it found MS Office Setup on a workstation and HP Printer Setup on another workstation.

WORKAROUND
----------
When it finished to decompress all files in this folder:
  "%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Setup Files"
let the other setup program start without interrupt it.
Copy all files and folders (Setup.EXE, Reader9, Data1.CAB,...) to another folder and then stop the wrong setup process. After cancel the wrong setup program, the main window of Adobe installation will remove all files in the "%USERPROFILE%...\Setup File" folder. That's why we need to copy it to another location.

Now start the Setup.EXE from the folder where it was copied manually.
For future installation, I used this folder on CD rather than the file download from the internet that I we don't ever need and that takes to much space on disk for it usability.

SOLUTION for Adobe
------------------
I think Adobe must fix this by sending, from internet, ZIP file containing all uncompressed files and folders (Setup.EXE, Reader9, Data1.CAB,...) rather than EXE that cannot work more efficiently.
I have this problem since version 8.x. and I think the problem is present since awhile.
