Go to online preferences and turn it off. If Photoshop or Elements keeps trying to access the Internet even when I set Online Prefs to Never. If you don't want any of the automatic update/download features (I don't), search your system for aom and rename it to aom.old. Always make a copy of the file and stick in a back up folder.
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:owner-macgroup at erdos.math.louisville.edu]On Behalf Of Harry Jacobson-Beyer Sent: Wednesday, September 21, 2005 12:23 PM To: Macusergroup Subject: MacGroup: Adobe Whenever I start Adobe GoLive or Adobe Photoshop Elements the program downloads two files. The window menu bar says "Updating Adobe Online components from Adobe.com..." Under that it says "No personal information is being transmitted" then names the files and tells where they are situated: My hard drive: library:Application support: Adobe:Web: Sometimes it goes quickly and sometimes the programs hang. When it hangs I have to do a force quit and try again. I usually cannot cancel the operation. Does Adobe really need to do this? If not is there anyway I can prevent the program from doing this download at the onset or how can the download be prevented from hanging?
