Opening of attachments in hotmail.

I use hotmail and want to OPEN spare using M/S Word.  Until recently, I was able to do this.  I do NOT want to open using Office Live, but to open in REAL Office Word.  I changed to 'download' documents and checked the box to do this in the future.  But I have changed my mind and still want to OPEN the documents.  But now, I don't get the option to change back.  Please let me know how to do this.

Thank you

Right, thank you to EVERYONE, but have finally solved the problem.  After reading some tips on changing the settings - most people are referring to IE - I decided to track down the equivalent in Firefox.

What you have to do, is go to the Applications tab in the Firefox Options, where you can see a long list of file types and applications that will be used to open each type.  In my case it was mostly Word documents I had probs with it, clicked on the line in the files Microsoft Word and THEN IT SHOWS YOU A CLIQUABLE towards the DOWN ARROW WHERE YOU CAN CHANGE WHAT YOU WANT IT to DO - ONE OF WHICH ISALWAYS ASK !  Then changed the setting went and tested it and hey presto it works!

But thank you very much to everyone who has issued advice - great to know there are people out there who do not give up on you!   :-))))))))))
