Default Acrobat reader

I am using acrobat reader 6.0.3. (for win98) and when I am on the internet
and I want to open a file on the internet that requries the reader, the
reader will not open automatically. It show shows a tiny box in the left
corner with a red X in it. Then I have to safe the target to my desktop and
view it from there. What changes in interenet explorer do I need to make
so I can veiw the document right on the internet?

Open the Reader and look for an options or preferences setting in one of the
drop down menuas. There should be a setting that tells the reader to monitor
and open when you are on the web and click a file. (I'm running 7.02 on XP
Pro so I can't give you the exact place to go to.)

Jerry: I tried that and it didn't change anything. Any other suggestions? By
the way, I have WinME not Win98. My mistake.

You have to install the Acrobat plug-in... sorry, I disrecall how,
perhaps in Acrobat Tools/Options/Preferences or by rerunning the Install
program and choosing "Install Acrobat IE plug-in"
