Hi All,

I am having an issue while opening adobe forms in IE 6.
The error is " Windows has blocked this software as the publisher cant be verified" . The software is AdobeControl.CAB.

I am getting this error both for reader versions 7.0 and 8.0

This is happeneing with only 2 systems(one of these had no issues previously while opening adobe PDFs in IE), for the rest of the systems its working fine.

Please let me know whats to be done

Thanks
Lisha
