Connection for source failed enviornment not trusted

I created a form that should populate an Access DB. I think I have done all the steps (think newbie). I placed all files on our intranet. When I type in the url to the form I keep getting the error message:

"Connection for source failed because the enviornment is not trusted"

The form then opens, but nothing happens when I click on the submit button. The database is not populated.

I am a newbie to all this, so I probaly missed a silly step. Does anyone have any ideas?

Are you using ADBC Acrobat Database Connectivity (ADBC) to connect to the database? If so, this is disabled by default in Acrobat 8. To enable visit the following URL:
