      An hour ago I was wanting to view a .PDF file and AVAST slid a window       open telling me to think about what I was wanting to do.              When I hovered the mouse over the program name that caused AVAST to       wake up I saw a string of characters that AFAICR was nitrop~4.exe .              I searched my HDD from a CMD Prompt using DIR and all it reported were       files about the NITRO PDF Reader.       I saw the Date of one file was November 19, 2014, and two files in the       ALL USERS sub-directory were Dated October 14, 2014,but most of them       were Dated 2010 when I downloaded the Nitro PDF Reader.              Just a few minutes ago I finally saw Nitro PDF had been set to be the       Default PDF Reader program instead of the PDF-XChange viewer I recently       started to use instead of Foxit Reader, when I looked at the File Type       shown in Windows Explorer.              I used Open With to set PDF-XChange as the Default program I want to       use to read PDF Files.              I can't figure out why Nitro bumped PDF-XChange out of its place.              Maybe the XP computer is out to get me.              ... What has ears like a cat and a tail like a cat but is not a cat?
