Rod: The fact is that you no longer have links to files needed, so far as I can tell. As to your level of competence-I would think you are capable of looking to see whether there are any folders for Reader remaining after you do an uninstall with Add/Remove followed by the MS Cleanup utility. You can also run Crap Cleaner and Ashampoo's WinOptimizer to help remove remnants. Both of these delve into the Registry for you. There are commercial solutions. The dreaded-reformatting and installation of Windows XP is a last ditch method, of course. Finally, programs that become corrupted for whatever reason are best uninstalled and reinstalled from the ground up. This assumes that you have the disc and have backups of any data.
