ScreenShots have become Acrobat files?

[GrapeApe]

I'm using OS 10.2.1.

I have a bunch of screen snap shots (command shift 3) on the desktop, that used
to open in Preview, that now have Adobe Acrobat icons, and open in Acrobat 5.

What happened?

Could it be something that happened after installing Safari 1.0? Or some other
browser? ( I use MSIE and AOLs among others, which may have only recently had
Acrobat reader installed as a plug in) How would I go about changing the system
default for screenshots back to Preview? Are the screenshots PDF now, I just
haven't been realizing it, and some possibly Acrobat being installed as a plug
in for PDFs have made previous screensnaps into acrobat files?

I have nothing against Acrobat reader, it is just that it is overkill for
looking at pictures of my desktop, which are never multipage files. I want the
default to change back to Preview as the application. Where can I make this
change?

Thanks in advance

Click on one of the snapshots: Finder Menu Bar-> File-> Get Info: Open
With: Whatever you specify/Change all if you like.
