When I click to download a .mid (midi) file, Firefox automatically launches an Autocad applicaion I have installed on my (Android) phone. Is it Firefox or the Autocad app that's taken control of that file extention ?

Firefox asks the Android OS for a list of apps that are able to open the file. Possibly opeining settings > applications > manage applications > all > autocad > clear default may allow you to select a program to open the file.
