The uninstaller should be available in ADD/Remove Programs. If not then look in the Adobe Reader folders. Sadly, the next option is not fun-manual removal including the Registry entries. There is commercial software that can aid you with orphaned Registry entries, btw. The only thing in the Registry that you need concern yourself with are specific references to Adobe Reader. I agree that working on the Registry is full of potential danger. I cannot be held responsible if you elect to do this. Removing all references, including files, is the only way I know of to do a "fresh install" of a program.
