Hello! I get this error anytime I try to open a pdf in IE: "The Adobe Acrobat /Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a Web Browser. Please exit Adobe Acrobat/Reader and try again." I am using Adobe Acro Pro 6.0 w/ WINXP Home. Help! Thanks!

Hello jzwiley,

Open the Internet preferences, by choosing Edit > Preferences and select Internet under Categories. Click Internet settings and make the necessary changes.Also check the list of Add ins in IE to make sure all Adobe Add ins are enabled.

Hope this helps.
