Every so often something changes and I have to re-figure out how to get PDF 
files from the web to open the way I want.

Recently I upgraded from Acrobat 9 to Acrobat XI and things have gotten jumbled 
again.

Now when I download a PDF file, it opens in a Seamonkey tab using Reader 
instead of Acrobat 9. I can save the file, then open it in Acrobat 9 or XI in a 
separate window, but I'd rather not do that over and over!

I seem to remember that this behavior is controlled by the order in which 
Reader and Acrobat was installed -- is that correct? If so, it would seem PDFs 
should now open in a Seamonkey tab using Acrobat XI.

I just disabled Reader in the Add-ons Manager (where perversely it identifies 
itself as Acrobat!). Now I'm asked if I want to open the file in Acrobat (in a 
separate window), which works, but is not my preferred behavior.

Does anyone know how I can reset Acrobat XI to open in a Seamonkey tab?

(BTW, I've tried some of the other alternatives (PDF.js, Foxit, Nitro PDF) but 
none of them offer the functionality of the full Acrobat product.)
