If all other programs are working correctly - uninstall Acrobat and then reinstall. You may need to uninstall each plugin first. If all programs are unpredictable - wipe the hard drive and reinstall the OS and all programs. You may need someone very computer literate. My experience seems to indicate that most 12-year olds know more about computers that some "pros". Good luck - When you get it fixed you might try to limit what the kids can do on the computer in the way of adding and deleting files.
