IT Queries: Computer problems answered

For about a week or so whenever I use the help in MS Office 2007 applications the normal help dialog box appears but when clicking on the Topic it brings up a File Download box and asks me if I want to “open or save the file”.

I click open it display it in my Firefox browser.   How do I get it to open in the help box (other progs such as Windows & MS Works display OK, it is only in Office there is a problem)

I have tried Repair Office and I’m running Windows XP.

The problem is Firefox is set as the default browser for web files. You’ll need to change the association.

To do this, follow our instructions on  our “I can’t open my files” answer. Choose Internet Explorer as the program.
