Hi, Sher.
Have you been to the Adobe website recently? They've had some problems in
transitioning to Vista, but maybe they have a later update that will solve
that problem. Are you using the free Adobe Reader, or do you have the full
Adobe Acrobat application?

That pathname should start "C:\users\sher..." And the Content.IE5 folder
holds your Temporary Internet Files - in other words, your Internet cache.
That folder does not follow the usual rules and you probably should not try
to manipulate it at all.
When you see the popup message, does it offer you an option to save the file
anywhere else?
