Adobe Spyware! Warning!

[Gutter]

I did a search for AOM.exe on my hardrive and looked in
Crogram Files\Common Files\Adobe\Web and I dont see that file at all, should I not worry about this problem?

Buggered if i can find it either

I run the latest version of Zone Alarm Pro. I just blocked adobe and put allways.
There's also an Update Dialog or something that comes up the first time u start Adobe.. Just say No.. or like Allways No.

Yep, I had the AOM file. I must have got it when I got that early copy of Adobe Acrobat 6 Professional (Pre-Release) - Anyone else here had the same?

Either way, I had a good solution for it - I didn't really create and edit PDFs that much, so I uninstalled it. AOM seemed to go with it as well

Looks like I'm back to Acrobat Reader...or does anyone else know another decent PDF reader?

If you have a clean, well cracked/repacked copy of photoshop, you have nothing to worry about.
The only contact my system has ever had with adobe is if I initiate it.
And I have ALL adobe products installed that I could find.

Regardless, Adobe has been getting ripped off since win 3.1 and I'm not ware of any prosecutions related to simply using their software without purchasing it.
Any serious user most likely will purchse a program before using it commercially any way and the rest of us just provide excellent market exposure for them.

sounds fake.
/me doesn't give a fuck anyway.
