Weblink Not Loading

[Someone]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsme.general (More info?)

I have ME and Adobe Reader 6.0.2a. Occasionally, when I click on a weblink,
I get a blank page with a small rectangle in a corner, which rectangle has a
red square in the upper left, a blue circle below and to the right, and a
blue triangle below and to the left of that (as I view it). This would
appear to me to be a PDF file which is not loading. I tried disabling the
AVG firewall and allowing popups on Google taskbar, to no avail. Recently,
this happened when I clicked on a link from an email I receive daily from an
English newspaper, "the Telegraph." What could be the cause of the link not
loading properly?

I tried downloading the latest Adobe Reader for ME, 6.03 (7 does not work
with ME), and got a message that I need to download 6.02 first; however,
updating the AR on my C drive gives me the message that I have the latest
version. So, I can't update to 6.02 and hence cannot update to 6.03. I
don't know if this is the problem or not.

Uninstall the current Reader, and reinstall the 6.02 version. Then use the
internal updater, under Help, to get version 6.03.
Then retest your web pages.
