Wrong Version of Adobe Loads

[edpaulw]

I have Acrobat 5 (full version) on my system -- but I haven't installed the Acrobat 5 Reader.

I have the Acrobat 6 Reader installed.

When I click on files having a PDF extension OUTSIDE of my IE browser, Acrobat 6 is loaded (and that's what the Windows File Extensions say is associated with PDF files.)

However, if the PDF file is downloaded off a website, then the Acrobat 5 module appears to get loaded.

How do I ensure that the Acrobat 6 READER loads when downloading PDF files off the net?

Uninstall Acrobat 5?

Seriously, I think Acrobat 5 has a setting somewhere that tells it "use me for web PDFs". What that setting actually does, I dunno. It might, for example, drop an OCX into an IE folder somewhere, something like that. But poke around inside Acrobat's preferences.
