I have found that you sometimes have to manually open Foxit the first time.
Usually choosing open with and then navigating to Foxit and checking the box
always use this program to open this kind of file only has to be done once.
I saw the following on another newsgroup. I think it answers your question.
"Upon further investigation (meaning buried deep in the Adobe marketing
literature) Adobe fesses up to the fact that they have tested Reader v.8
with
a beta version of Vista and plan on shipping another version which will
provide support for Vista sometime in the future."
I have the same problem. I have to save the files to documents or somewhere
convenient, then open them with Reader 8. For older pdf's, they will open
with Acrobat 5 which did install successfully and work, despite messages that
it has a compatibility issue.
I read on down about Adobe 8. I bought a Gateway and PDF files will not open
unless I save to a file first. I bought a Compaq the same day and the PDF
files open fine.
