Vista - Unable to connect to Adobe Website

I cannot access any adobe website using Vista

Any Ideas?

Is it just the Adobe website? If so - send them an email and let them know.

No ideas but I find that I can access it on a clean install, but it won't
load on an uograde install. All the IE settings are the same.

I have the same problem trying to download acrobat reader. I also tried going
to it from a site that contained the reader download link.

Also on the Vista site, it mentioned CA and AVG AntiViris products that can
be used on Vista. I downloaded both and tried installing them. Vista says
they are not compatible and will not allow the install.

Has anyone seen this?

Thanks, Tony

I downloaded the CA A/V product and it installs and (I think!) works OK, but
every time I boot up it asks for administrative rights to install something
to the system tray.

The principle of not using a privelidged account for normal use is fine
(although, ahem... another operating system has been doing this for some time
now... :-) but having to do this every boot is ridiculous.

I imagine, though, this is the fault of the app rather than the o/s

Who's fault it is would depend on who your talking to. Microsoft will say
it's the software, everyone else on the face of the planet will say it's
Microsoft's issue.
