I really need this download and I can get the download manager and when it
goes to preparing to install it just stops and nothing happens. I have been
to adobe.com to downlaod and for support and I still can't seem to get it
figured out. I don't recieve any error messages in the process so I'm not
sure whats going on. If somebody could please, please help me it would be
greatly appreciated.

Thank you, thank you Bert that helped with the pdf things I already have
saved. Now my problem is I need the adobe to print some tax forms that I
need and the foxit won't open them for me. Now what??

It's my tax papers from Turbotax. I was able to download the file to my
comp. but when I try to open it, it says could not parse tax2005.tax what
ever that means. However I think my problem is with my InstallSheild Wizard
and not Adobe, I am currently looking into it. I think some computer classes
are in order for me, this really sucks. Anyway thank you so much for the
foxit, I can now read a bunch of documents I desprately needed. If you know
anything about InstallShield, feel free to let me know. I did handle the tax
stuff differently, but thanks for the help.

What's the file extension of the file you downloaded? Is it .pdf ?

provide a link to the files so I can take a look?

I am having the same problems as April- it seems the online Tax preparation
programs want you to use Adobe- I can't get it to down load. My error msg
says the prog. doesn't have a file assoc. with it and I need to create one.
Can you help?
