I had Adobe Acrobat 7 Professional on my computer in 2010.  It kept (every time I open explorer or start up the computer) trying to update, but immediately does 1606 cannot access setup location /startup.  I tried to uninstall and same error, tried modify, same error, so went into command prompt and deleted the whole folder, still keep getting it over and over.  How do I get rid of it... please.

Thanks
