(I assume you're using Windows.)

Well, you're trying to open a PNG file with Acrobat Reader, and as
Acrobat Reader only reads PDFs, it's complaining. But I guess you knew
that.  The real question is, "Why are you trying to do that?" and the
answer is probably that you've somehow got PNGs associated with that
application.  I'm not sure whether this is a matter of your Windows
file associations or something in your browser (I tend to avoid
Windows, if I can).  But you need to associate PNG with an application
that can read it; your browser should be able to, if it's a recent
enough version, or a general graphics-viewing app if it can't.
