This is the site from which to download the reader. Have no experience on the PDA but I assume if you put the program on the SD card or thumb drive or whatever for the PDA then it would be self expaantory

It should open by just double clicking , I don't know what OS your using but XP has this setting too in the Outlook Express email, mine is Vista so the panel might look a little different but the basics are the same,
This will only apply if your using Outlook Express or Windows Mail.
Open the email, click Tools up the top , click on Security. and if the 2 boxes I arrowed are ticked , then untick them.
