I can download the program and run the installer just fine. The problem starts when the installer calls ACMSETUP.EXE which calls a startup of my 16-BIT Microsoft ODBC Installer program. I'm not even sure why it's still on my machine, but it is. The Adobe installer seems to be calling it from somewhere and even if I cancel the ODBC install, the Adobe program fails out with no install.

Anyone see this?
