It belongs under a folder called "Common Files", not in CS3's plugin folder.
This arrangement allows Photoshop and Bridge to access the same copy of ACR.

Having two versions visible may work, but it is not a good idea, since there
may be other situations where the older, incorrect one is accessed. For
example, if you happen to start Bridge, I'll bet dollars to donuts Bridge
will use the old version, causing confusion.

Run AcrChecker to see if you have multiple copies of the 8bi file installed
and, as Johan suggests, delete the older ones. AcrChecker is a free
download:
