Betreff: [THIN] Re: Get IE to use Acrobat Reader Plugin

Here's an excerpt from the policy that I use to give users access to the full 
version of Adobe 6.0.  All settings go under HKCU.  I believe the one that 
refers to the .OCX file is what controls IE.

Subject: [THIN] Get IE to use Acrobat Reader Plugin



Hi 

W2K/SP4
IE6 with actual Patches
MF PS 3.0
Acrobat Reader V5
Acrobat Full Product V5 

some of the users only have access to the Reader (AcroRd.exe) and other to the 
full product (acrobat.exe). I succesfully managed with help of respective 
reg-files to redirect users based on group membership to have either the 
AcroReader or the full version open up when double clicking a pdf file.

What regkey do I have to change to have the same behaviour when opening pdf 
files from within the internet explorer? Can someone give me a hint on this?

All your input is appreciated very much 

Peter
