Adobe Reader 8/new Adobe Reader version

I am running Adobe Reader 8.2.6 on a Windows XP SP3 laptop.  I have problems with pdf books purchased on my Sony eReader (it keeps freezing on the player) and I plan to try to update my Adobe Reader software at least a 9.x.  Read the current problems with version 10 of Adobe makes me not want to wait a bit.

My question: do I have to uninstall Adobe Reader 8 before installing version 9 or even 10 or do these versions remove older versions of Adobe Reader?

While I'm at it, I also have Adobe Reader 7.x on a Windows XP SP3 Media Center Edition desktop and I really should get a more recent version of the player there.  Must same question, Adobe Reader 7 be uninstalled first?

Just a few observations:

For purchased eBooks that are "PDF"; in general, these have management of digital rights (DRM) applied and must be used in conjunction with Adobe Digital Editions rather than Adobe Reader.

A good practice to commit before installing a more recent Adobe Reader - uninstall the replaced version.

Be well...
