Tools - options - applications only shows a limited number of file types and applications eg NO ppt
I try top open for instance ppt files from a web page. They might open in .txt or .zip of .htm etc. I try to associate the filetype with the right application but can't find the filetype in the dropdown list of "Content Type" under tools - options. The "Content Type" list begins with Adobe Acrobat Document and goes through a list of application/... then shows
audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin

Tried getting rid of mime and restarting. No good
Tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox. No good.
Any ideas?

Still investigating this, I found that Powerpoint 2003 was added to the Content Type list (sometime today) but not Powerpoint for pptx files. Then I went through some of the Basic Troubleshooting steps, and, after Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults, many of Content Types, including Powerpoint have disappeared.
