When I try to install Adobe Reader 8 for Windows Vista (http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html) I get this error message:

"The Temp folder is on a drive that is full or is inaccessible. Free up space on the drive or verify that you have write permissions on the Temp folder."

I have 382GB left on the harddrive so I know space isn't the problem.. I don't even know where the Temp Folder is in order to check permissions... Plus I am logged in as an Administrator and I even right click on the install file and selected "Run as Administrotor"... I have even booted into safe mode and tried to install there and still no go...

Anyone else have this problem and was able to fix it?
