My IT "professionals" updated my computer (XP Professional) with Adobe
Acrobat Pro 8.0 (full program, not just Reader). Immediately, when my
Internet Explorer opens, it flashes briefly and then closes. But only
under *my* user profile - IE works fine under an Admin profile! In
all fairness, there were probably some other updates done as well
(Java was one, I know). They even renamed my old profile and built me
a new one -IE opened once, but never again.

Anyone else seen this puzzle? Is tghere a solution?

Ed,

How about patching up to 8.1.1? Give it a shot.
