If you want version 8 and have already attempted an uninstall-then you will probably want to try using the Windows uninstall utility mentioed in several other messages. In addition, check that ALL references to Adobe Reader are removed from the drive. This includes folders and Registry entries. This last location can require editing. WARNING-you are solely responsible for editing the Registry-do so at your own risk! Whatever you do-make a backup of the Registry and create a Restore Point. Having removed everything that you can find will produce a clean environment for an install of Reader 8. Download the program to a directory you create (I use Temp) and run it from there. Good luck
