Adobe Reader compatibility message
Well, I have had Adobe reader and Vista Home Premium for 8 months now and suddenly this week I am getting a message come up when I visit certain websites that "This Program has known Compatibility issues". Of course when I click the button to check for solutions online Microsoft comes back with a message that there are none now.

Anyone know about this and have a solution before I spend time messsing around with this?
Thanks,
G

That's easy. Completely uninstall it and use PDF Xchange Viewer, which adds some functionality, including some editing and adding notes to PDF docs.

Well now, if only all life's problems were that simple! Thank you. Will do.

Just to satisfy my curiousity;

Wonder why this message started popping up just lately.....think it could have something to do with the numerous Microsoft Vista updates lately?

No idea why that program started this all of a sudden, but I'm pretty used to seeing error messages with Adobe. It's mysterious to me that it takes Adobe 50 mb's to make a reader and others manage to do it (even adding more functions) in 1 mb.
