For a PRS-300:

Install Sony reader software
Install ADE
Authorise your computer in ADE
Start up Sony reader software
Plug in your reader via USB cord
Check that Windows can see your reader (should tell you that two new hard drives are available)
Check that Sony reader software can see your reader
Start up ADE
THEN, ADE should detect your reader and offer to authorise it. Let it.
ADE should then display "PRS-300" in its list of available libraries
Close down Sony reader software, and never use it again
To download DRMed ebooks, instead of saving as you would for a normal file, select 'Open in ADE' (or similar wording) - ADE will download the ebook and do its thing

You still won't be able to read B&N ebooks, because they use a different form of DRM which ADE doesn't yet support, but you will be able to read ebooks from Kobo and the like.

Hope that's helpful.
That was my whole purpose for asking, since the post to which I had been responding was talking about B&N books. I had already authorized my reader for ADE via Sony.

Although I thank everyone for the detailed instructions on how to do it anyway.
