jebbypalOkay, I've loved foxit reader for many reasons -- one being it's not the system hog that adobe pdf readers are. However, the version I'd downloaded had a flaw in that the library would never close which resulted in me not being able to move articles around for filing unless I rebooted. So I figured, what the hey, they've probably repaired this, I'll uninstall and reinstall.
STUPID.
First, the uninstall for some reason wiped the three articles I'd just downloaded. (You'd have heard me screaming if it wiped all of my articles on my computer. Most are backed up, but still).
Second, I figured I'd go ahead and buy the full program so I wouldn't get the stupid "you'll have annotated marks" warning about the foxit logo if I was using the free version and wanting to type notes on the article. Okay, no problem, download and install after paying and grab the temp license key.
I go back to download the articles I'd lost and .... suddenly foxit reader refuses to cooperate with firefox. At all. I don't frelling understand it. And I don't need to procrastinate to figure it out. But I LOATHE LOATHE LOATHE LOATHE LOATHE IE7. With white hot hatred.
but I guess I must give in for the moment.
I just don't frelling understand it. I don't recall having to fix this problem when I downloaded the software initially, but I could have forgotten it.

This is almost enough to make me go and download Opera just to avoid using IE7.
ETA -- oh thank god. there's an extension to fix the problem here
