I've now got a solution, posted to me by Rog Walker in the Adobe
forums. It's as follows;

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This problem is caused by a bug in adobe 7 with the file association
for fdf. Go into folder options, file types in windows explorer and
find fdf. The open action (not open with adobe) if you click on edit
will have double quotes around the path to the exe. If you change this
just to single quotes it will start working.
Here is the incorrect one (something like this) 
""C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat.exe"" "%1" 
corrected: 
"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat.exe" "%1" 

I hope this helps. We are desperate for an automated way to fix this
or for Adobe to straighten this out because its causing us a bunch of
headaches
