Hi Brian
The whole point of my posting here (after posting in the OFFICE n/g and getting essentially the same response) was that all settings in the areas you mentioned are set correctly and nothing SEEMS to be dictating that 80% of all replies cannot be done in anything other than in plain text.format.
I had a suspicion that something in Acrobat was bound to be causing problems (though I didn't think they could be this abstruse!): There simply can be no reason why I am constantly being asked to download gigantic files which seem to make no difference whatsoever to what is, after all, simply a read-only program which doesn't seem to change much although each progressively more advanced version takes up more resources and slows down the computer by more than a small bit. Is there anything I can do to stop this annoyance?
(I should say that I DO have two mysterious programs on my computer which I don't recognise: One is called Distiller and the other Acrobat Professional 6.)
