Can't download Adobe Acrobat

[de8212]

I went to download Adobe Acrobat Reader and when I click Download I get an "Error on page" in the bottom left corner of IE7.
Clicking on that gives me the following info:

Line: 226
Char: 2
Code: 0

And then it gives the URL of the page.

I know i can find Acrobat somewhere else, just curious how to get past this???
I have the IE pop up blocker disabled and google toolbar pop up blocker does not show any signs of a pop up????

Acrobat Reader 7.0.8? Try this link: http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/r.../win/7x/7.0.8/enu/AdbeRdr708_en_US.exe

Any good?

Yes, with a bit of cheating... (edited for clarity) click the Download link but then cancel the download. On the next page, there's a link to click if the download didn't work. Copy Shortcut on that link, insert it into the address bar, and remove the _DLM from the URL. DLM stands for Adobe's DownLoad Manager, which I think we can all live without

When you say right click the link do you mean the red download button under System requirements ??

No fair, you edited.


As soon as I click the download button nothing happens except the error I first posted about.

The Download button appears to use Javascript, so make sure that's not disabled. If the problem persists, you might try a shutdown/restart of Windows. If you just want Reader, then the link I gave before should do the job.

In other news, Foxit Reader > Adobe Acrobat Reader.
