I am trying to install the most recent version of Adobe Reader onto a Windows XP SP3 computer with Internet Explorer 8. I am able to download just fine, but I run into a problem during the installation when I get to the part where it tries to retrieve the install. From what I can tell, instead of downloading the actual installation file it's as if I'm downloading something that handle the download of the actual installation file (like a download manager). Anyway, no matter where I download from and no matter whether I save first or run without saving I get the same Internet Explorer Script Error. It looks something like this:
An error has occurred in the script on this page.
Line: 1
Char: 9914
Error: Object expected
Code: 0
URL: http://127.0.0.1:4287/app/_js/adobe.js
Do you want to continue running scripts on this page?
Yes No
I have tried everything I can think of. I don't know if some random Internet Explorer setting is interfering with the install or if it's something else. Also, whether I hit Yes or No, nothing happens. I have only tried downloading from the Adobe website and have not tried using third party websites.
Please help.
Thanks,
jen
