Printing from Explorer

When I try to print to Acrobat from Windows explorer (with Adobe Acrobat as a default printer), Explorer tells me that it cannot print because Acrobat has not been activated. Trouble is, my Arcobat has been activated, and every other program on my computer can print to it. I am using Acrobat 8 with Vista as an operating system.
Any ideas?

My Product Information:
Acrobat Standard 8, Windows

Vista has not been up-graded to be compatible with Acrobat 8.0 They are working on an upgrade now. Try this. Go to the Control Panel and see if Adobe Printer is installed as one of your printers. If it is, save the file you want to print on your hard drive and try to print it with the Adobe printer.
