Open Reader itself, it should ask you if you want to reestablish it as the program for pdf file extension. I had the same problem when installing 6.0 and removing 5.1.

WRONG FORUM

it doesn't even ask me that at all

Then open an explorer window, Tools>Folder Options>File Types, point pdf to Acrobat 6 exe.

Oh wait, you're having problems with web pdf's, not local? In Reader, try Edit>Preferences>Internet make sure everything's set up right. YOu can also try Help>Detect & Repair.

No problem....6.0 seems to screw up associations very easily. It's got some nice new feature, though, like the ability to cuy & paste areas of pdfs and print only zoomed areas.
