I tried to install adobe acrobat 7.0. After a successful installation, Word
will not open. THe error message says that Runtime has received a abnormal
instruction.

Apparently it was not installed successfully after all, or it has not been
updated to the version that integrates with Word correctly. See the last
section of http://www.gmayor.com/lose_that_adob...at_toolbar.htm

Take a look in the Word Startup folder (c:\Documents and Settings\[User
Name]\Application Data\Microsoft\Word\Start Up) and you will probably see a
template that you can identify with being something to do with Adobe
Acrobat. What it is probably intended to do is put some buttons on the
toolbar that you probably don't need, so move it to some other location.
