It looks like you have two different products. Adobe Acrobat 5 which you'll want to keep (it's used to create PDF's rather than just strictly view them) and Adobe Acrobat Reader 3 (which is what you want to upgrade.

Go to <http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html> and choose the proper OS and it will give you the download options (Which I believe will be Reader 8). Keep in mind that the download could be in the range of 40MB so it's rather large for dial-up.

After downloading and before actually installing, go to Add/Remove programs and remove Acrobat Reader 3 then install whichever newer version you've downloaded.
