1184895	2011-03-10 03:25:00	Installed Foxit Reader, set as the default PDF reader But when trying to open a pdf document – Windows cannot open this file… Right click, open with à Foxit Reader works fine, but doesn’t retain it. Control Panel, Folder options, File types: pdf isn’t listed Trying to create a new file extension doesn’t hold. Any suggestions please?	NZHawk (4093)

1184899	2011-03-10 20:15:00	OK	NZHawk (4093)
1184900	2011-03-10 21:58:00	GREAT! Sumatra worked! Why? Do you prefer Sumatra?	NZHawk (4093)
1184901	2011-03-10 22:06:00	Used to use foxit, till they decided to add askbar to it. And it installed without telling you / or letting you choose to untick the option, so it wouldnt install Sumatra is good enough for me (and others). It does, what its meant to (open PDF files). Dont know why foxit wouldnt stick	Speedy Gonzales (78)
1184902	2011-03-10 22:08:00	Great, thanks again. NZHAWK	NZHawk (4093)

1184904	2011-03-10 22:47:00	Used to use foxit, till they decided to add askbar to it. And it installed without telling you / or letting you choose to untick the option, so it wouldnt install strange - it seems to tell me, and lets me choose to untick the option.. (tho you do need to click "decline" and not "accept" to carry on installing Foxit without ask addons)	bevy121 (117)
