Adobe 8 isn't recognised by some software

I have a library of PDF files on a commercial CD. When I upgraded to Adobe Reader 8 it didn't recognise the module which enabled me to browse the files like a book. Instead I have to guess which file I want and open it from Windows Explorer.

Short of waiting for an upgrade from the CD manufacturer, is there anything else I can do? Can I scrub Adobe Reader 8 and download 7 again?

Why can't these products be backwards compatible?
