Hi

Help!
I can't get Acrobat Reader to run.

I just uninstalled and then re-installed "Adobe Reader 9"  in my
Windows XP (SP3) PC.
I have a roaming profile (which I hate but apparently I'm stuck with
it).

I cant get Adobe Reader to even open on its own without an error.
The error is:

   Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
   Rutime Error!
   Program: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe
   This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an
unusual way.
   Please contact [blah-blah]

- Should I re-install the Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library?
(If so how the heck do I so that?!)

- Or should I download an earlier version of Adobe Acrobat?

- Or do I need to do open heart surgery on the registry
   (I have NO idea how to do that stuff, btw)


Help!

With thanks

P.S. I do NOT have Adobe Acrobat installed on my PC.
