PDFs won't open in Preview automatically, even though the Preferences are set for it to do that

I have my Firefox Preferences set to automatically open PDF attachments in Preview. They don't do that. A dialogue appears asking what I want firefox to do with the file, even though the box below saying 'do this automatically in future', (or whatever the exact wording is) is ticked. I've checked my preferences and they also say open PDFs in Preview. It's very annoying. Any ideas why this is happening?
