ok they have now changed it to this
The following are known issues with this app in the current version of
CrossOver.
* Licensing
Whenever loading Dreamweaver MX 2004, there are two files that need to be
loaded into memory. Whether Dreamweaver is preactivated or not, it looks for
the Macromedia Licensing.exe to run. Another file that is loaded is the ASP.NET
Design Manager - which may or may not crash DWMX if it's not. On Windows 2000
and Windows XP, a licensing service is loaded. I'm not sure how that works on
Windows '98.
It is not the Product Activation that's the issue. I was able to make a
complete replica of my Dreamweaver MX 2004 installation with the help of
WinInstall. All registry settings were copied over as well. The serial number
along with the activation verification number. That disables Product Activation
from coming up. The first screen that comes up in DWMX before anything loads is
the "Choose a Workspace" screen which allows one to select Coder or Designer.
That screen loads before the Product Activation, which if anything, would be
the issue. However, I disabled that as well by copying over my configuration
directory and modifying my customization preferences in the registry.
Even with the Product Activation disabled and the screen that comes up to
choose a workspace, it still doesn't work. Which leads me to believe that the
issue may be with a DLL (or several DLLs) that DWMX 2004 is loading on startup.
In Dreamweaver MX, it pretty much uses the same files with the exception of the
'licensing' program - the Macromedia_Licensing_Installer.dll.
* Does not work.
Dreamweaver MX 2004 does not currently work.
