Hi,
The PC has Adobe Writer 5 and Adobe Reader 6.02 on it.

The problem is that Internet Explorer will only open a PDF in Writer 5 when following a link on a web page. The issue seems to be the same regardless of what version I associate PDFs with or what order I install the products in. Double clicking on a adobe on the desktop opens it in v6, but Internet Explorer only wants to open PDF files in the version 5. I'd like to get web PDF's open in version 6.
Anyone got any ideas?

Hi Bcastner,
We've had a few issues with acrobat recently including this one and after browsing many sites it appears there are some issues with running both concurrantly. its not an ideal situation but for the moment its the most commercially viable one.
Thanks for your help again.
