When I download a .pdf file from my Outlook mail box at my office, Firefox reads it as an .ashx file. However if I use Safari, it is read correctly as a .pdf file.

How can I fix my Firefox browser?

An IT person at my office said I should reset the download actions by deleting mime.Types.rdf, but I can't even find this file.
