Dear Adobe,
It appears that the Linux community has published a web page not only
condoning the policy of pirating your application Dreamweaver 8 but
also
publishing a step by step list of instructions. Additionally a Linux
fanatic who goes by the name Roy Schestowitz has been blasting the
link
to the instructions all over USENET although it appears that he is not
the author of the blog describing the piracy of Dreamweaver 8.
Here is the url for the blog
http://blog.publicidadpixelada.com/how-to-dreamweaver-8-in-ubuntu-in-10-
easy-steps/
In case the link does not work you can find it here

Here is Mr.Schestowitz's post to USENET

You can also find the entire thread discussing the piracy of your
application here:

As a long time Adobe paying customer I find it appalling that Linux
users
have the audacity to think they don't have to pay for commercial
software.
Thank you for your consideration in this matter.
