how do I...

Hello
When ever I download something it automatically goes to powerpoint which is entirely unsuitable. How do I put the download to go to Acrobat reader?

Thanks

zero-lash valve lifter,

Right click on the file you want to download, and pick Save Target As... Once you have downloaded the file, right click on it and pick Open With. If Adobe Acrobat will open the file, then go to the file, right click on it and pick Properties

Next to Open With, click on the Change Button. Then you can pick Adobe Acrobat to associate with that file type.

Take Care,

Richard

P.S. The instructions above are for WinXP.
