I'm also having a Runtime error.

This was on a fresh install of Reader 8 on a new-build. There is no MS Word installed. When I open any PDF document, I get the exception window after about 3 seconds:

Titlebox: "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library"

Content: "Runtime Error!

Program: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information."

This occurs when loading PDFs in the standalone, MSIE, and FireFox. I'm running on Windows 2000 SP4.

Looks like Adobe wasn't very diligent w/ QA prior to releasing this little mistake.
