while the "install-routine" consists of one great PDF-document with 
clickable links, up to now Acrobat Reader was the only PDF-Reader which 
could handle this. In the meantime i was told, that Foxit can do the 
same, so i think the next versions of ProTeXt will also use Foxit in 
addition to the Adobe Reader.

In the meantime, you should come arround the problem by opening 
.../install/protext-install-en.pdf manually.
