As Dave Stamm pointed out, it is highly likely that your problem was 
caused by conflicts between multiple versions of Acrobat/Reader; and Dov 
Isaacs, Adobe's PDF guru, has warned against multiple installations 
countless times.

If you have Acrobat, do NOT install Reader!

"Acrobat and Adobe Reader have numerous components that have similar 
functionality and can cause conflicts on a machine. The most prevalent 
among these conflicts involves the plug-ins for rendering PDF files in 
the browser, PDFMaker inside Office Applications, and the Adobe PDF 
printer."
