I need to install acrobat reader to the clients machine
if and only if the client is not having acrobat and trying to open a report which is in pdf format.

I kept this acrobat on the iss server and on the same server i have my reports.
Now when the user clicks on the http://servername/a.pdf and if the acrobat is not there then it doesnot open anything and no error as well.
so i am reading this a.pdf name into an asp page and there itself i want to check wether user has already installed acrobat and if no then start insatlation from the server itself.
