Vista ate my CS4.

During the conversation I had with Adobe about my problem I concluded Adobe hates Windows Vista. You could say they aren't friends that's for sure. The tech quoted " the idiots at Microsoft obviously wanted job security for saps like me when the made Windows Vista, it's tech support hell for all new programs."  He had especially nasty things to say about the UAC (User Account Control) that came out new in Windows Vista.

All and all it was an annoying,  but good learning experience. I learned some really neat things about my computer and it's devil operating system.
