Mike,
thanks for staying with me.

I can easily imagine that :-(
There are serious problems even with the Reader and Acrobat on the same
version level 8.x - under Vista as well as under XP.
As I want to load the Reader when opening mail attachments (WinMail) on
my Vista machines I had assigned the Reader as the standard application
to be launched. I took me weeks and only with the aid of an MVP and
several iterations I was able to fix the registry entries.
AFAICS the Adobe Reader and Acrobat install routines create serious
mistakes in the relevant registry areas.

> There can be installation/de-installation issues.

ACK.
