Default PDF turned into unreadable Word.

Sounds like the file association for the .pdf file type somehow
got changed from Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader to Microsoft Word,
and you'll need to change it back. See
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=307859 "How to change file
associations in Windows XP". The process is similar in Windows
Vista.
