I upgraded Windows Messanger 4.7 to 5.0 and ever since,
every time I try to use Adobe Acrobat Reader, the Windows
Installer tries and fails to install Windows Messanger
5.1 again!!! I've already tried to uninstall and
reinstalled Acrobat Reader it did not help ... also i
tried reinstall the whole XPpro and this didnt help
either ...hope someone can help me ... bcpotter

Greetings,
To correct this, click Start,then Run, and type the following:
msiexec /x {C3A6819F-62D3-4750-AF1C-28206DDF2C2E}
then click OK.
Then, after uninstallation, reinstall Windows Messenger 5.1 from:
