My current version (Acrobat Reader 4.0)frequently encounters errors in loading pdf files. Is there a later version for a W98 pc that I can download? Thanks.

Not that I'm aware of.

Unfortunately for you, there's not a lot of folks that create PDF's these days with version 4 compatibility so you'll have to update the OS or accept it.

I operate windows 98. I always had adobe 5.0 and it worked great on PDF files. Recently though, I can't read anything and have been searching days to re-install it. Any suggestions on how I can get it back. I'm certainly not a pro on computers so maybe I deleted something. Sure appreciate help for this Senior! Thanks

You can re-download Reader from the Adobe website, BUT it is important 
to know why it disappeared. You should use some disk utility to check 
for disk directory damage. Years ago I used Norton Disk Utility, but I 
don't know if you can find one that will work under Windows 98 anymore.

Should do the trick.

I stand corrected. It looks like Reader 5 will work with Win98.

Keep in mind that it may not help much with the errors. 5 is still pretty outdated.
