    From the error message you're receiving it appears that the .PDF file thinks that Adobe Acrobat Reader resides at C:\Acroread\Acroread.exe. Does it?

    If not right click on the file while holding down the CTRL key. One of the selections on the pop-up menu should be "Open With ". Click on this, find the Adobe Acrobat Reader program, select this, and check "Always use this program to open this file type ".

    If that doesn't work you might want to consider downloading and installing a new version of Acrobat Reader? A free copy can be obtained from the following link;

    http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html

    If you decide to download and install a new version make sure you uninstall the old version first.

    HTH. :)

    Glad to be of help.

    For the benefit of others which of the two suggestions corrected your problem, Right Clicking or downloading a new version?

    :D
