I've just noticed that sometimes when I go to open a PDF file from an AOL email attachment it tries to use Chrome instead of the default Adobe Reader. Very Odd. Doesn't happen all the time, but, I it happened a few times today, then it corrects itself and opens PDF's correctly with Adobe Reader. Any thoughts on this?
