Here's another point: Adobe seem to have fallen to the same condition afflicting other "free" software suppliers lately. Version 5 wasn't bad, but have you tried Acrobat Reader 6? it's another of those bloated megalomaniac programs that wants to phone home to the corporation every time you run it. Every PC I support where I find v6, I have to take it off and put v5 back on. It really isn't worth suggesting to some poort soul that they should "download Adobe's free reader" any more, as they will undoubtedly hate you if they follow your advice. Give them a free Word viewer instead.
The free Word Viewer available from Microsoft at:

(watch out for wordwrap - should be one continuous line with NO SPACES!)
clocks in at 3860 KB - far short of the 26 MEG+ behemoth that Adobe puts out for reading Acrobat files now - if you can even reach Adobe's site to grab it!
