    1. Re: [NEWGEN] Acrobat Reader 4.0
    2. Jerry Robke
    3. I did a search for Acrobat Reader and found a file called C:\Acrobat3\Reader There are folders in the file named ActiveX, Browser, Fonts, Help, Optional, Plug_ins, All are empty folders With Windows Icon DelsL1.isu and DelsL2.isu, These are not readable. I went to the ReadMe.pdf and found these instructions This ReadMe contains information about installing Acrobat Reader 4.0 for Windows and Troubleshooting Issues. Installing and Uninstalling Acrobat Reader 4.0 for Windows To install Acrobat Reader 4.0, follow these steps: - Uninstall Acrobat Reader 3.x using the uninstaller available through the Start menu. ------ I cannot find the uninstaller at the start menu. - Make sure you have at least 10 MB of available disk space - Install Acrobat Reader 4.0 Note: If you uninstall Acrobat 3.x or Acrobat Reader 3.x after installing Acrobat Reader 4.0, you will need to reinstall Acrobat Reader 4.0 for it to work properly........... This was installed from a Web site somewhere. Uninstalling Acrobat Reader 4.0 Acrobat Reader 4.0 can be removed using the Adobe Acrobat 4.0 uninstaller which is available through the Start menu. If you uninstall Acrobat 4.0, you will also automatically uninstall Acrobat Reader 4.0 because they share common files..................... I have the uninstall for 4.0 I went to the Add/Remove Program Properties and there is an install for Adobe Acrobat 4.0, nothing for Acrobat 3. Any ideas except for shooting this computer? Thank You Rose .
