   Reinstallation of Netscape didn't work.   
      
   Recently I  cleaned up some files.  Now in notice that there is no adobe   
   executable in the folder Program Files/Common Files/Adobe/Adobe Acrobat   
   5.0/98.  I am running Windows 98.  Is this the problem?  If this is the   
   problem, where can I get  the missing file?   
      
   Thanks.
