What extension do the filenames have -- .doc, .docx, .pdf, or what? Are
you running a version of Windows, and if so, which? What version of OOo
did you install? Installing OOo (or, with current versions, starting it
for the first time) gives you a choice for whether to use OOo for the MS
Office filetypes, or to continue using Office. What did you select?
One possibility is that you used the right-click (context) menu on a
file of type .doc and chose Acrobat to try to open it, with the option
selected to always use this program for this type of file. You can undo
that, if it happened, by doing the same thing but navigating to Word or
Writer, again with the "always use" option selected.
Installing (never mind just downloading) OOo would never set the
association for a Word document to target Acrobat Reader; you must have
done that yourself somehow. Or possibly what you think is a Word file
has the .pdf file extension. It's those extensions that tell Windows
what program to use for opening the files.
