I don't want PDF files to open in Firefox 3.6.10. I want to be asked whether to open or save the file, using Foxit Reader outside of Firefox (PDF files are registered to Foxit on my computer). In the past, I have renamed the nppdf32.dll file and successfully disabled the Acrobat plugin (which disappared from about:plugins). This now does not work, and the plugin is still listed in about:plugins, despite there bing no nppdf32.dll file. Now, when I try to download or open a PDF file, all I get is a black screen--no dialog box and no document. Please tell me what to do. Thanks.

You can disable that plugin. Open the add-ons manager (select Add-on in the Tools menu). Now go to the Plugins panel, select the Adobe PDF plugin in the list of plugins and click the Disable button.

You should be able to disable the PDF plugin in the Adobe Reader settings
