Don’t know why you had to delete web folder contents. You could have turned this off in Edit>Preferences>Adobe Online. I bet the same option exists in CS.

It doesn’t on my machine. However, I, fortunately, don’t have the problem. I don’t know the answer.

I am eligible for a site upgrade to CS, but use it on an internal networked system that does not have internet access for security reasons. If CS will not work without "phoning home" I need to know that before my IT department deletes PS7 from my workstation!

You do, of course, have a firewall? Just set it to disallow PS or anything Adobe access to the outside world. 🙂

I wonder if this has something to do with the installation being activated and/or registered?
I did both on initial installation and PS hasn’t tried to connect yet.

PS7 does, wanna bet they turned it off in the newer version? Nah, no one would be silly enough take that bet.

PS 7 only does that if you don’t turn it off in the preferences.
