That's what I ended up doing (deleting the directories/files).
The reason for uninstalling and re-installing Wine in this case (not
something I'd normally do) is because of the 757K system.reg file in the
.wine directory. It is full of Adobe references & I wouldn't dare edit
it. Therefore, I'll get around to uninstalling/reinstalling Wine later
tonight or tomorrow.
As for Acrobat. I have 4 and was curious about 7 and seeing if it would
work w/Wine so I figured I'd give the trial CD a try. Oh well I've other
tools that will work just fine except for exporting exotic fonts in
forms... for that I'll just dual boot for now.
