Well I didn't see anything about installing ANYTHING, lol. I mean I googled
foxit reader, when to the first place listed, downloaded the zip file to my
desktop, unzipped the files to my desktop, clicked on the .exe and the next
thing I knew all the icons for the PDFs on my desktop changed over to
Foxit's icon and when I clicked they opened. The only thing I saw was when
I clicked on the .exe it had a large window open with 2 small boxes in the
center and one said open pdf files or something like that and I have no idea
what the other one said. I just clicked on the box that said open files and
it changed all my icons. I even rebooted and it didn't even show a Foxit
program in my install/uninstall or a Foxit in my Programs, so i take that to
mean it doesn't have to even be installed. It's a moot point anyway since I
had to go back to acrobat 9.0.
