Problem to open the pdf in Firefox

Problem to open the pdf in Firefox
Hello,
When I try to open a pdf document from Firefix 3.0, I'm seeing a window that says error: Acrobat plug-in. Could not launch Acrobat. Could not launch Acrobat. Before this happens break the link, I also not open my pdf documents with Acrobat Reader with Foxit Reader, a PDF reader. This link with Foxit has not been upset if I open a document from Foxit Opera and also works perfectly if I open a pdf document in Windows Explorer.
How to fix ?

Thank you very much for your help.

Re: Problem to open the pdf in Firefox
The most common cause of this problem is Acrobat Reader plugin is not properly installed for your Firefox browser. This can happen when you install Firefox after installing Acrobat Reader. You can fix this problem easily by reinstalling Acrobat Reader.

Hello,
In Tools / Options / Application go to PDF and then recreate the link to Foxit. There are also PDF-XChange Viewer (free) which has a plugin for FF (and IE), you must check the installation.
