I just got a brand new laptop with Win7 on it ... however, I can't remember how to set it so that when I browse through Windows Explorer I can't see the covers of my PDF books. Being able to see those covers makes it easier to figure out whether or not I need it. Can anyone help me figure this out please?

Thanks in Advance

My "guess" is you are using a 64-bit version of Windows 7, right? If so, then the problem is most likely Adobe's total failure to properly implement 64-bit handling. :(

See if this helps - it worked for me: http://www.edbott.co...64-bit-windows/
