Hi all,

I have Windows 7 with Fireox 21.0 and Libre Office 3.6.6.2.

I cannot view .doc files without saving them first. In Options .docx is listed but not .doc. Also diving in to about:config reveals that browser.download.pluginOverrideTypes is not listed, so I cant reset it.

Has this always happened. Or was it recently?

Also it appears you are using an old version of Firefox. It is highly recommend for stability, and security purposes that you use the latest version of Firefox.
