Couldn't tell ya, Harry.

potential problems.

I dl'd the barebones version for WinME but it still stuck sometimes in
Firefox and hung around in TaskManager.

v6 piece-of-crap programming. v7 is better behaved but it's only XP.

Maybe un- and reinstalling would help?
Couldn't hurt to try, or did you already?

I don't recall what I tried (if indeed anything); I'm on Win2K
currently, but when I reinstall WinME I'm back to AcroRead v.6 so I'll
give that shot.

You might want to have a look at the free lightweight Foxit PDF Reader
