| Vista Home Premium 32bit | Downloading ZIP Files with Vista Home Premium 32 I am running Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit on a HP dv6458se Notebook. A couple of weeks ago when I tried to Open or Save a ZIP file online I got an Adobe Reader 9 error. The Adobe logo showed in the Open/Save/Cancel Box. Prior to that ZIP files opened OK automatically. When I uninstalled Adobe Reader, ZIP files download OK. The problem reoccures as soon as I reinstall Adobe Reader. I've gone to Control Panel/Default Programs/Associate a file type or protocol with a program/.ZIP and it shows that Adobe Reader is the Default Program. I clicked on Change Program but I cannot find an appropriate Program to use to open ZIP files. None of the Suggested Programs were appropriate. I browsed through all the program files on my C: drive, but again couldn't find anything that looked right. Any suggestions? |

| Vista Home Premium 32bit | Re: Downloading ZIP Files with Vista Home Premium 32 Thank you for your quick reply. Your suggestion worked like a charm. I would have replied earlier but just after I posted my question my Modem died.
