I've been having the same problem. I don't know of a final solution yet that works for me. I've done the uninstalls of every shred of past acrobats I could find. I'm wondering if all of us are just finding this problem because we haven't reburned a new OS image for a long time. I'm running XP Pro with SP2. I didn't post a reply to just say me to however.

I found that if I use windows explorer to view the directory at
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader
I then right click on "AcroRd32.exe" and select "Run As" and select a user that isn't what I'm logged in as, it will actually start! And I can then open up a PDF file fine. I was logged in as Administrator, but the other user I tried was part of the Administrator group.

Could it be something to do with environment variables?

I saw something mentioned in another forum about how they had to pass specific timezone info to the process in Linux for that version.
