   Desktop Prpblem

   I have just completed a fresh install of Windows XP with SP2. I have   
   also install SP3. I had lots of other applications to install over a 2   
   day period. Now I have a serious annoyance, mostly on the desktop but   
   can pop up in other places.   
      
   When I attempt to open a folder on the desktop up pops Windows Installer   
   attempting to install Adobe Acrobat Pro 7.0, (one of my applications I   
   have already installed.) I hit the Cancel button several times and the   
   folder will open. This can happen within applications when I try to open   
   a file.   
      
   I suspect a problem in Windows Registry.   
      
   Any suggested solutions are appreciated.
