Business of Foxit for Mozilla Plugin cannot update

When I try to open a file http://www. ... xyz.pdf in Firefox 17.0.1, message "this plugin is vulnerable and must be updated. See (here) for updates. Click here (anywhere on the screen) to activate the Foxit PhantomPDF for Mozilla plugin. »

When I go on the site which has so-called links to the updates, it takes me to the Mozilla plugin check page. On this page, to the right of 'Foxit business Plugin for Mozilla' it says 'unknown plugin. If I choose the option "search", it opens Google search on the subject of Foxit. The link above leads me to a FAQ from Foxit page that does not seem to answer my question. It is linked to an offer for a 'trial' Foxit Reader PhantomPDF version, but I already have a version under license, although the licensed version does not specifically say that he understands the plugin for Mozilla.

I've tried using the Firefox|Options|Applications to keep Firefox from opening "Foxit PhantomPDF Plugin for Mozilla"  and instead to use Adobe Acrobat 8.0 for opening Adobe Acrobat 7.0 documents.  Selecting Acrobat 8.0 or selecting "Always ask," (for all of the three Acrobat 7 items) doesn't stop Firefox from insisting on opening "Foxit PhantomPDF Plugin for Mozilla"  I have tried disabling the plug-in "Foxit PhantomPDF Plugin for Mozilla", but Firefox still insists on using it.

BTW I lance Firefox on another machine WinXP SR - 3 who is NOT a licensed copy of Foxit Phantom, then open pdf with Adobe Acrobat Reader documents on Internet. I was unable to get Adobe Acrobat Reader to install on my main machine, perhaps because she believes that the presence of the version of Acrobat 8.0 license makes the drive useless.

I tried the manual disabler via "subject: config ' and went to:
C:\Program Files\Mozilla plugins
and renamed the file with triple x to this:
XXXnpFoxitReaderPlugin.dll
But FireFox continues to insist on the use of Foxit Phantom Reader for Firefox

I do not know the nature of the vulnerability of plugin, but I would avoid any possible vulnerabilities. How do I kill the 'Foxit business Plugin for Mozilla' or where can I find a compatible update?

Thanks in advance.

Thank you... that worked... I don't know if the PDF was or was not an option when I looked before, but he was here this time, and by selecting Adobe to address, files now open smoothly.
