I am getting the following error message when trying to open a link to a folder

"This file is set to be launched by this PDF file. This is currently disallowed by your system administrator."
Currently I am using Reader 9, I was using Reader 7 earlier today and the link opened the folder with no problem. Nothing has been changed on the PDF file containing the link, nothing has been changed in the link, and if I go to another computer in the office that is still running Reader 7 the folder still opens. I also tried another computer in the office running Reader 9, the folder doesn't open, and I get the same error message.
Any ideas on how to fix this issue would be great. Thanks

Hi,
The issue that you are referring to maybe because of a fix provided by Adobe to prevent any external attacks. The following links may be of help to you:

To allow certain files of yours to be able to open external files and operate witout restriction, you can try and add the files to the Privileged locations section and the restrictions on the files will be lifted:
1. Open Adobe Reader 9.4.0 and goto Edit | Preferences
2. From the Left side pane, goto Security (Enhanced)
3. Click on Add File button and add the file for which you want the restrictions to be lifted. Click on OK to close the dialogs and relaunch Adobe Reader. This will enable you to open external attachments as well as allow JavaScripts to be executed from the PDF file mentioned.
