That's what puzzles me, I don't see a pdf file listed. I've copied (see below)what I received from my contact. She says that she sends this email to about 50 addresses and I'm the only one that has a problem with it. There is no pdf icon anywhere in the email. Subject: Come 'N Take It newsletter Date: Jan 28, 2010 4:10 PM Sorry it's a little late, but here it is. The second page pertains to our upcoming anniversary dance and a list of ideas and items we will need for the decorations. Thanks y'all and Yellow Rock! Just double click on to the pdf icon and it will open. If you want to print it, just drag it on to your desktop and print from there. Please let me know if you have trouble receiving and opening the file. Thanks again! Nancy

zep516, Thanks. I point out for those reading that I did update the subject Acrobat Reader, and my question was driven by the surprise that Acrobat is supporting both a 7.x and an 8.x version. Going to Acrobat's update site with 7.X installed resulted in an update to 7.X+, not an update to 8.X. Seems there must be some reason, maybe 7.X will run in Windows 2K and 8.X will not. I am running XP on both target machines. I also went to Acrobat's update site on a machine with 8.X installed, and it too got an update, to 8.X+ in this case.

Unless you are emotionally attached to AR or the site absolutely mandates it, I personally haven't found one yet as all they traditionally do is recommend, you might want to rethink installing or updating to AR v9.0. Beginning with AR v6.0 the application has become more system intensive requiring more resources. I do not know about v9.0, but v7.0 and v8.0 are terribly difficult to remove from your system if you ever so decide to. The free application Foxit Reader has been the recent .pdf viewer being recommended here and at other forums. All you have to do is install it and configure it to be the default reader. It is low resource demanding and from my readings a snap to remove. DA

Find another .pdf to download and pay attention to where it's saving. Many browsers by default save downloaded files to the Downloads folder in your user profile. You don't say what operating system is involved for a more specific answer.
