Mountain Lion not opening pdf files in Mail

Since installing ML I cannot open pdf files in Mail. I have updated Adobe Reader to the latest version, but no joy. I desperately need to open these files. Should I just give up and forward them to my wheezy old Sony running Windows XP?

iMac (27-inch Mid 2011), Mac OS X (10.7.3)

Why are you using Adobe Reader? Macs know how to open PDF without it. I would trash the Adobe Reader and open the file using Preview, Apple's default application to open PDFs.
