My pdf files want to be opened with microsoft word instead of adobe reader, how do I cancel the direction to word and apply adobe instead?
Somewhere along the line while trying to open a pdf file, Microsoft Word was selected. Now, every time I try to open a pdf file it takes me to Microsoft Word where, obviously, it won't open. How do I negate the directive to Microsoft Word and apply Adobe Reader instead?

You can try the Options dialog. This article, while not addressing the Word issue, describes the steps to get to the drop-down list to choose a program: View PDF files in Firefox or choose another viewer. Does that help?
