Well done Adobe this came after 6 hours re-installing my pc yesterday to Windows SP3. Well done indeed!!

I downloaded the free Reader 9 to overwtite Reader 8. On the first install, I failed to uncheck the install of Google Toolbar so I paused at approx 15%, backtracked, unchecked Google and resumed. Close to completion I got a BSOD.
Unhappy with this I uninstalled Reader 9 ok but then tried to uninstall GetPlus without success.
The second installation was not much better. It rebooted my pc after install and I got a reportable MS serious error.

I'm now left with a doubtfulReader 9 and GetPlus which cannot be removed.

What can I do?
