Running Win XP Pro and Acrobat Reader 9.

Whenever I attempt to open a MS-Word document, Acrobat reader opens up and tells me that the file type is not supported. Why would my opening an MS-Word .doc file make Acrobat Reader open up instead of the .doc file simply opening up into MS-Word like it is supposed to? If I uninstall Acrobat Reader, Word files open up in Office just like they are supposed to but with Acrobat Reader installed, I have this problem.
