this FAQ can be places under the "Errors and general problems" section 

*** How can I control the program launched by Org-mode to open a certain file pdf, html....
This is more a Operating System question than a Org-mode question, however:

In GNU/Linux (OS x ??  Carsten???? ) systems you have to 
check your mailcap settings, search the files:

: /etc/mailcap
: 
: or 
: 
: $HOME/.mailcap

and modify them accordingly. Please read their manual entry.

For Windows systems 
+ for html pages you may configure the =browse-url-= variables through the Customize interface,
+ the pdf files are automatically opened with Acrobat Reader (if it is installed)
