adobe readerAdobe Reader?

I have tried to get sight of plans relating to our development to do this you need Adobe Reader which I have installed. However when trying to access these plans I get "Error 1714" appear on my screen. I have tried uninstalling Adobe Reader but it wont uninstall does anyone have any idea what could be wrong?
I learned yesterday (in Yahoo Answers) about Foxit PDF Reader. It is better and faster than Adobe Reader, and you can download it for free!

I checked it out at CNet.com, great site filled with technology reviews. Based on CNet's review I'm removing Adobe Reader and going with Foxit!

CNet's editors give Foxit PDF Reader 4 out 5 stars. Here's what they said:

"To put it gently, Adobe Reader is a real pain in the hindquarters.

"It's monstrously large, slow to load, and includes many features most users will hardly ever need. Foxit PDF Reader 2.0 omits these widgets and throws in some neat features, such as annotation tools, adobe readerwhile still allowing you to read PDF documents.

"The interface mimics Adobe's, so you won't have to change your reading habits. In our test, the text readability wasn't much inferior to Acrobat's. The 1.6MB program starts surprisingly fast compared to Acrobat. You might need to fiddle a bit to get it to work with your Internet browser, but you can find help on Foxit's support forums. It's a nice touch that it opens PDFs from the Internet in their own Foxit window, instead of sucking resources from within the browser.

"Foxit's biggest flaw in the old version was hogging memory and that has been corrected. We did find it incredibly irritating that URL hyperlinks were unclickable, and that some features were secretly blocked in the evaluation copy."

This site has the review and you can download the software there:

Here's Foxit's site:

ENJOY!
I found this using Google @ pdfstore.com"

When I install Adobe Reader, I receive Error 1714: "The older version of Adobe Reader cannot be removed."

Damaged or corrupted Windows Installer files can cause problems when trying to load software. If Add/Remove Programs doesn't help you then you should look to the Windows Support Tool Windows Installer CleanUp Utility for more assistance. This removes the folders, files, registry keys and entries from your PC that are put there when an application is installed using Windows Installer. The utility provides you with a simple dialog window to help you identify the problem application.
