I decided to uninstall my present version and reinstall the latest from the MS site. But I'm not clear about the installation instructions at http://www.microsoft.com/reader/downloads/pc.asp
The only (PPC) download file seems to be called MSReaderSetupUSA.exe, yet later on that page I read 'Save the file named "msreadersetup.exe" to your hard drive.' Is that just carelessness, or is there really some other setup file I should be using? One for an international English user?

Also, will I need to go through the hassle of 'reactivating' when I get the latest version installed please?

Just run the MSReaderSetupUSA.exe on your desktop and everything will be all right. No need to copy/separately run anything.

Also, will I need to go through the hassle of 'reactivating' when I get the latest version installed please?
