- # These are windows host file entries to block Adobe CS5 & CS6 online product activation. # Removed all outdated hosts + sorted alphabetically. Updated: 12:01PM EST - 1/1/2013.
- Open the file /etc/hosts by pasting it in 'Go to Folder' in Finder. Edit out anything related to Adobe. This would stop redirecting those urls to 127.0.0.1 which is localhost. Thus allowing connections to actual IP.

Block Adobe Acrobat DC Activation using Windows HOSTS file STEP One: First open your notepad using Administration permission. Search for notepad and right click on it to see the option to run as Administration permission. I was directed to an offline activation page, but CS5.5 does not generate activation request codes (it was designed in the days of telephone activation). CS5.5 only provides me with information that was meant to be given to adobe to validate the product.
For those experiencing the annoying Adobe ID popup when launching programs you can try updating your hosts file and adding the lines below. Locate your 'hosts' file in c:windowssystem32driversetc and add the lines below to it then save and reboot:
