Can't Download Manual

Just purchased FOF (the Download) but am unable to pull up either the game manual or manual appendix in Adobe Reader 8.0. The hourglass just shows for a few seconds then...poof - nothing!
Any thoughts on what might be going on?
Thanks,

Try Foxit at
http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/rd_intro.php. It's a free pdf reader and many times faster than Adobe's bloated software. It might be that the new reader (8.0) has some problems with some *.pdfs.
I'd try Foxit, and if you can read the pdf with that then you know it's the software.

I assume your Adobe installation must be somehow messed up - it opens fine here with Acrobat 8.0. Glad you got it working with Foxit though.
