Solution for: #73: Chrome fails to load PDF: "cannot use adobe pdf in your browser"

upgrade to newest version of reader

2
by upgrading to the newest version of reader (i downloaded adobe reader 9) , i work around this issue. the installation also integrates the new reader to the browser, and the old version of adobe acrobat editor is no longer the go-to app (and doesn't trigger the error)

reading pdfs in chrome, happy as a clam.
