Ok, Here is what you have to do, first problem I ran into was I couldn't delete the C:\program files\adobe\acrobat 7.0\activex folder after uninstalling acrobat 7.0.

So, Reboot in safe mode, but log in as the safe mode administrator account. Then it will allow you to delete that whole folder. It has some acroIEhelper.dll file.

Then, Reboot in normal mode under your user name.

open regedit. Go to the keys in question, Click on each key that you want to delete, go to permissions, click on ownership, on the list in the window YOUR user name will be there as well as administrator, CLICK ON YOUR USER NAME, then hit apply. Then go back and you will be able to delete it. You have to do this on each sub-key.

If anyone has any questions or doesn't understand, feel free to email me at ck_guy02@yahoo.com

I fixed it with no problems.

This is a disgrace on Adobe's part.
