"Options" is not listed on my pull down Tools menu. I am trying to prevent .pdf files from opening in excel and apparently need to access options to do so.

Note that the Adobe Reader plugin may not be working properly on Mac.

Disable the Adobe Reader plugin in Firefox (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) and use the external Adobe Reader application or Preview application instead. PDF files may be found under entries like Portable document or Adobe PDF document or Adobe Acrobat Document.
