Finding out the answer would be simpler if you look at the word about in a completely different way. Verb: You certainly can't about something. Juan abouted higher than me? That just doesn't make any sense.

Adjective: The room looked quite about. That doesn't make sense either, does it?

And an adverb is just both an adjective and an adverb, so that certainly wouldn't work out.
