Printing to Adobe PDF

Acrobat 8 professional on Windows XP home
 
When I want to print to Adobe PDF (using Ctrl P) I get the message
".... Acrobat is not activated"
So, I go through the process of reparing it.
Then it prints one document. For the next it gives the same message. I have done this about 5 times.
I am printing typically web browser windows.

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 8.0999999999999996447286321199499070644378662109375, Windows

Hi mhundal,

You need to activate your product before you can use all the features. For more information on Activation visit the following URL:

Thanks,

I have a similar problem.
When printing a web page to Adobe PDF, I receive an error stating the product is not activated. So I go to the Activation Tool and both options are grayed out.
I will uninstall and reinstalle Adobe Acrobat 8.1. This will sove the problem for a day. But eventually the problem will return.
Thank You.

I have the same problem, repeatedly (not activated, greyed out) All I do is restart the computer. When I check with Windows help there is something about a printer directory, so something outside of Acrobat seems to change.
