I want to switch from Bloglines to Google Reader. How do I change the settings so that when I click on the orange icon in the address bar, it takes me to Google, not Bloglines?

I'm switching my RSS reader to Google. Yet when I click on the RSS icon in the address field, I'm automatically redirected to my Bloglines account. I am abandoning Bloglines. How do I change the default so that I can add directly to Google Reader?

See Manage file types and download actions in Firefox, you need to follow the instructions for changing download actions. Under "Content Type" look for "Web Feed", you can then change the Action from "Use Bloglines" to "Use Google"
