I am a newbie too, my technical knowledge leaves a lot to be desired. I had this problem too, and it took me days to figure it out. With the help of a TechNote and some determination, I have it fixed on my system. First you need to go to Microsoft Support and download the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility AKA MSIcuu2.exe Here is the link: hppt://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;290301. Save it to your desktop and get out of the program. I have XP, so I went to Start, then Search and looked for MSICuu2.exe. When the icon shows up, run the program. After its done its thing, you will get a list of files. Click on Adobe and it will remove it. Then go back into Adobe.com and install 8.0 Yippee! It worked for me. Hope this works for you as well. As far as you techie people go, please show a little heart and not just post to "search" People like us were lucky to even find the forum!
