I've made my first purchase from Kobo, but I can't download the book. When the "Open with..." window pops up (I am using a version of Windows XP), ADE is not a choice. When I search for it manually, I can find it, but when I choose it, I am defaulted to Adobe Reader.

Adobe Digital Editions opens up fine on its own, but I can't download the file from it.

Any suggestions? Do I need the Kobo desktop software? I was under the impression that I did not and I would not have purchased the book if I had to install more software.

Thanks for any suggestions or advice.
