As you may recall, Adobe sicked the FBI on one of Elcomsoft's engineers (Dimitry Skylarov) a few years ago while he was giving a talk at a Defcon Conference in Las Vegas. He was arrested and detained in the US until the trial during which both he and Elcomsoft were acquitted. What a slimy company Adobe is.
I may be wrong, but I don't believe this software will remove the DRM that is on the ebook variety of PDF. It will remove passwords, but the encryption scheme that Adobe uses for DRM is not the same as user/owner passwords. I wish it was that simple.
