In my opinion, this should go out in printed form with all new computers.It
should also be bundled with any Windows XP software.

Internet Storm Center: "If you know of someone who is about to receive a
new computer,or if you have received one yourself, please, please read our
new Windows XPsurvival guide,
'Windows XP: Surviving the First Day. (PDF)'"

NADA....how do I get .pdf articles such as above to download and be read
using Acrobat Reader v6....and within the Reader have set it to be available
in IE. PDF will open within my XpSp2 computer but no downloads. This is one
week after the install and the first 'oddity' that has come into focus.
Is a .pdf file considered to be a 'pop up' 'a dangerous download' or is that
Adobe Reader has to be configured to be an 'Add on' ????
