I have a csv file that I download once a week and load into excel. Yesterday FF25 decides that the csv file is a text file (it is not) and converts everything to text. This is a new and unwelcome problem. To my horror, I was forced to try opening in IE where it worked just fine.

The FF open screen has 

    filename.csv
    which is:  text document 
    from https://companyName.com

A CSV (Comma Separated Values) file really just data separated by commas in a text file. Try saving the file and open it with your preferred spreadsheet editor.

This means that the server sends the file as text/plain (this may have changed if it didn't happen before).
Firefox always opens a file send as text/plain in a browser tab.
You can right-click the link and choose "Save Link As" to save the file or use "Save Page As" if the file opens in a tab.
