June 25, 2001

Adobe Systems Incorporated has determined that www.elcomsoft.com is engaged 
in other unauthorized activity relating to copyrighted materials published 
by Adobe Systems.

INFRINGING MATERIAL OR ACTIVITY FOUND:

At http://www.elcomsoft.com/aebpr.html, Elcomsoft is offering for sale a 
software program designed to remove the copyright restrictions from eBook 
protected works.  As the copyright protection is applied by the copyright 
holder, and NOT the end user, any claim that the software is designed to 
assist the end user in activity other than illegal piracy, is unsustainable.

Continued offering of this product without Adobe's consent constitutes 
contributory copyright infringement.

Adobe has a good faith belief that use of the material in this manner is 
not authorized by the copyright owner, or its agent, or the law.  This 
violation is a matter of great concern and will be pursued aggressively by 
Adobe Systems.

ACTION REQUESTED

Adobe is requesting you cease the illegal actions by removing the offending 
materials.  Please respond to us no later than five working days.
