Click help in Adobe then detect and repair, or reinstall Adobe 7 and get the update to 7.01

Hi sunandoghosh

Have you tried to download the same file again, but try to save the file in a different location, sometimes the file can be corrupted from who knows what on the big pipe.

Second thing to test is your reader program. See if one of your friends will burn the file to cd, and see if you can read it on your cp.
