Problem opening PDF files

[Bob]

When trying to launch adobe acrobat from a pdf by double
clicking on it I now always get a message "PDF is not a
valid win32 application" and acrobat does not start. I can
only open PDFs now by first running acrobat and then
opening the file from i, which is tedious.

Anyone know what cause of this problem is ?

Thanks

Try uninstalling and then reinstalling Adobe Acrobat.

Thanks: I removed v5:0 and then installed v6:0. This has
cured the original problem but now I get a message "two
plugin files attempting to register with same name" when
v6:00 launches. This message appears 4 times for 4
different plugin files...Any further ideas ?
Thanks
