HP desktop w/ windows 7 installed/ Microsoft office 2007/ Adobe is downloaded and when I attempt to download a document, the document is downloaded to Wordpad and is in a computer language that I cannot understand...
Where do I change it form Wordpad to Microsoft word?
What do I need to do to be able to read documents in PDF?

I have XP. Try right clicking the file, and it should say something along the lines of "open with", then hit adobe reader from there.
