    It means you are trying to install an incompatible version of Acrobat on Win 8. Sorry, this most likely will never work. Feel free to check you permissions, user privileges, run as admin, turn off security tools and use compatibility modes to try again, but to tell you the truth - you may be wasting your time. Even if it installs, there may be compatibility issues and well, using such an old version poses a security risk when opening potentially malicious PDFs from the Internet...
