I keep having to double post because you cant edit your replies.

On that link above, scroll to "To change the Common Programs
path under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE"

That is the instructions.

ok, i have tried the user shell folders stuff already before asking the question as i have mentioned already.

so for mcsa_2003  , you are listing the same link i have tried!!
for EE33, mine is not the upgrade, so its not the case, the settings are pretty much ok.

here is the registry export for anyone who wants to look deeply into this, import it to the registry and check if this cause a problem to your registry (maybe its same as your registry settings)

Thanks everyone, but i solved it myself.
the problem was strange but after changing the registry settings as i mentioned in the question, i needed to uninstall adobe. Then ran a registry cleanup program and re-installed. It turned out there was some problem with the registry so i am accepting the answer which was closest to the solution.
