In all cases when I got that message, the file was acquired on that machine (a VirtualBox machine).

In all of the files I've tried, the Print First line is there, and I've changed the zero to a one.

When I don't get that message, it works great. Has anyone seen this message? Am I out of luck for now?

Thanks!
As I recall, Adobe DRM used two different methods of activation, one that was tied to the computer and another that was tied to an account. The ones I've downloaded have all been tied to my account. When you tried to open the ebx.etd file in Acrobat 6.0 on your VirtualBox machine, did it take you to Adobe's website and make you log in with a Microsoft Passport?
