Frankly what they released was not really anything at all novell.

I thinks it's fairly common knowledge that if you backup an applications 
state database prior to a certain action and then restore it that action 
will seem to the application not to have taken place.

All Elcom have done is exposed just how stupid Adobe are once again 
through what is definitely protected speach in I see it.

No doubt it was an ill advised move to publish the information as from 
themselves given that they still have the US case still hanging over their 
heads.
