How can I get PDFs to open in Adobe Reader by default rather than opening in Preview?

I only have this problem while using Firefox; when using Safari however, PDFs open in Adobe Reader just fine. :confused:
 
in ff3b3:

firefox--> preferences --> applications. choose PDF, and select "Use with Adobe Reader"

It's a little different in ff2, I think you go to preferences, and choose file types and then you can change the default to open with adobe reader.

Do you mean this? I wonder why there's no PDF extension listed. :confused:
