I'm tired of pulling hair which I don't have and have run out of options for being a helping neighbor.
I have tried and tried to install several different versions of Adobe Acrobat without success. Even though the installation routine appears to successfully complete, all the application does is hang up with the hourglass when launched.
Acrobat 6.0, 5.0, 4.0 all do the same thing, whether installed from CD or from broadband download.
Windows 2000 is the operating system which has been updated within the past week. Problem appeared prior to operating system update, but after deleting a solar eclipse type of desktop background image. Part of the problem is a business owner allowing 9yr old to install & play unlimited number of games, unsupervised with company computer in the back room. Computer is open architecture.
No other problems have been observed with the computer.
Suggestions? Other than keep children from modifying things without permission? This same child was allowed to play, unsupervised, with a $7000 sewing machine based upon the Windows operating system. Needles moving 700 strokes per minute under software control and children don't mix.
