Same with me. Long time ago I registered. Now, with new computer and an ACSM ISACA CISM book, I can not read it, since ADE keeps generating Activation-server error (code E_ADEPT_REQUEST_EXPIRED. Uninstalled, re-installed, Created brand new ID's. Tried to phone but got disconnected, or after a long list of computer-answering machine I got told that Adobe does not service ADE.

Had a chat and he simply send me here since "Our relevnt team will assist you from there." - I guess he was not relevant .

Seems to me Adobe has a major bug in there software.
