if you to google.com and type in error 1606 there are numerous ideas for solutions.  Hope this helps.

This is probably your answer but be careful editing the registry; it can be disastrous if you're not careful.

I would first try this: uninstall Adobe/reboot/ and then reinstall. I believe thereis an upgrade to Version 6.0 at adobe.com if you're interested.

Hi Maxd,

I have already been to the microsoft site and edited the regestry as suggested but it didn't solve my problem. Thanks anyway for your help.

Did you uninstall any previous version (and reboot) in Programs/Adobe before the attempted install? My OEM XP copy had version 4.0 on it; don't know if that is standard.

Also, I would not let ZA (?) and anti-virus program load when you attempt to install on a freah boot. Version 5.05 is below if you can't get 6.0 to install. (Sorry you'll have to paste it in.)
