    Has this happened more than once? I can only advise trying again another time - maybe the site is congested? *shrug*

    I hope you get to download it sooner rather than later.

    If it still doesn't work maybe try another site to get the adobe thing from? (Ask for recommended sites)

    Is it only for Adobe reader or for all adobe products?

    Are you sure that you're logged in as "Administrator"? If yes, try to save the file first and run it afterwards. Don't use the Adobe Downloader, download it directly from

    http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.3/enu/AdbeRdr930_en_US.exe

    to your Desktop, then double click on it. If you still get the message, right click on it and chose "run as Administrator".
