I've had other problems with Adobe Reader 10 and thus still use Adobe Reader 9.4.2. For some reason, Adobe Reader 10 cannot be used if PGP 8.x is installed. (I have PGP 8.0.3.) PGP 8.x came with a required DLL file that interferes with Adobe Reader 10. Why Adobe would create an application that even cares about a DLL that is peculiar to PGP has never been answered. While Adobe Reader 10 can be run with PGP 10.x, the latter contains a serious security vulnerability that Symantec (which now owns PGP) will not fix for the freeware version. See <http://www.rossde.com/PGP/ltr_to_Symantec.html> about my thoughts on how Symantec has apparently abandoned the distribution of PGP for individuals, non-commercial use. The security vulnerability does not affect my PGP 8.0.3. It was reported that Adobe Reader 10 can be used with PGP 8.x in Windows XP if Adobe Reader's properties are set to run in Windows 2000 compatibility mode. This is true only for running Adobe Reader as a stand-alone application (e.g., on a PDF file from the user's own hard drive). Reading a PDF file from the Web in SeaMonkey or Internet Explorer does not work with Windows 2000 compatibility mode. -- David E.
