The setting you are looking for is located in Tools > Options > Applications. If setting it to using the in-browser plugin doesn't work, you will have to contact Adobe support at http://www.adobe.com/support/.


Your Firefox version is several years old. It's no longer supported, and using it is a security risk.

Please update to version 3.6.10 using Help > Check for updates menuitem, or by downloading the installer from http://getfirefox.com. Thank you.
