PDF file problem

    Hi people.

    I have a toshiba laptop running XP and using Safari beta as my browser.

    Long story short, when I went to shut down my computer it would say there is an adobe program running in the background and a blank window would pop up.

    If before i shut down I ctr+alt+delete it wouldnt show up as a working program.

    So I uninstalled adobe and the problem went away.

    Now though I keep getting this msg when I first start safari.

    Link to file message

    I have norton and malwarebytes running and neither are showing up any problems.

    I would also like to point out that this problem was on the laptop before I had to do a re-install for a different reason.

    If anyone could shed some light on this I would be grateful.

    Thanks in advance
