Choosing Reader not Acrobat in IE

we primary using adobe reader @ our office, though handful of people have acrobat installed. isn’t problem, when viewing pdf file through internet explorer, it’s acrobat chosen viewer. though have configured windows use reader @ program opening pdf files.

the real problem on computers have installed older version of acrobat (version 6) it’s have around of scanners using. , on computers, when opening pdf file web page, adobe informs using old version, , should upgrade version 7 or 8.

it’s not in budget right upgrade our old licenses , want force internet explorer open pdf files using adobe reader , not adobe acrobat.

but how do that?

edit> os= windows xp sp3

under “edit” => “settings” => “internet” (i have danish version, not sure if it’s translated right) there option viewing in browser or not.

i have tried uncheck option in acrobat , have checked in reader, should make browser use reader in current window, no, opens in new window, using acrobat.

any ideas?

i have read changing in registry have found works.

adobe recommends should not have acrobat installed on same system acrobat reader. intefere each other. systems have acrobat, should remove acrobat reader. not need both read pdf documents.
