Re: adobe reader 7.0.8

The patch should be listed in "Programs and features" in control panel. Take
it out and re-download a new copy. (Open the reader and use the help menu to
'update')

Re: adobe reader 7.0.8

ok i thought it was gonna work but it didnt, it went throught the downloading
process but it was 93% complete and it throwed up a box that says error 1714
the older version of adobe reader 8.1.2 cannot be removed. and as i said
before i cant delete the 7.0.8 version it throws a error also.

Adobe Reader v8.1.2 does not work on my Windows Home Premium and I had to
switch to Foxit as a reader.
