Ron - it seems very surprising that your OS does not recognise a .pkg  
file, as I think that is an absolutely standard download/install  
package, but most downloads deliver a .dmg to your download folder.

To download Reader 707, you can use this link, which will give you  
such a .dmg file:

<http://www.versiontracker.com/php/dlpage.php? 
id=107&db=mac&pid=108&kind=&lnk=http%3A%2F%2Fardownload.adobe.com% 
2Fpub%2Fadobe%2Freader%2Fmac%2F7x%2F7.0.7%2Fenu%2FAdbeRdr707_en_US.dmg>

Let us know if that works.
