I am having the same problem with Adobe Reader 9.0. I install it, load it up, agree to the terms and then it promptly crashes. I am downloading and trying to read some pdfs that include foreign characters (Kanji/Hiragana/Katakana) and preview displays them as squares, so it is not something I can view in preview.
Help!
Here is the error:
