Don't know exactly want happened, but after installing Adobe Reader (Ver 7 or 8.0) it affected numerous programs on my computer (causes them not to open nor operate). Example: After installing Reader, I noticed it changed several shortcut program icons on my desktop to Adobe Reader icon. Now when clicking the icon the affected program will not open, nor operate. After uninstalling Adobe Reader, the problem disppears. returns program icons and programs open normally. Reinstall Adobe Reader, identical problem happens again. Seems that Adobe Reader attaches itself to these programs, prevents them from operating, but disappears after uninstalling Reader. Any ideas what is happening, or what I can do to fix it. Greatly appreciate ideas.
