To respondents Mike Kazlow and Pat Willener, thanks for answering my trouble report of Tuesday 08/19/2008 from Katy, Texas. I'm aware that Microsoft stopped supporting Windows Me in July 2007. My intention was to Update my 'Freely Supported' copy of Adobe's Acrobat Reader up to Version 6.0.6 to minimize User Warnings when accessing Federal Websites for IRS and Social Security PDF Forms. On 08/19/2008 I initiated the roughly 6MB Download (approx 18 min at 45K Bps) via my MSN 9.0 Internet Dial-Up subscription. After about 10 minutes of download, the process CRASHED with a 'Corrupted File' Error Message. I've done similar size Security Downloads from Microsoft for Windows Me and Internet Explorer 6.0 without failure. So, I 'drilled down' the Adobe road to Restart the Download, but the OS Drop-Down Box Did Not Include Windows 98 or Windows Me. So, I concluded in my Brief Report that Adobe Reader for Windows Me is No Longer Supported.
