here's what i've done to get around adobe updater.
deploy the file %appdata%\Adobe\Updater\AdobeUpdaterPrefs.dat with the read only flag set.
contents are as follows
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <AdobeUpdater>
<LastDateCheck>2005-05-13</LastDateCheck>
<AutoCheck>0</AutoCheck>
<DownloadDir>D:\Updater</DownloadDir>
<ShowNewProducts>0</ShowNewProducts>
<AutoCheckType>0</AutoCheckType>
- <ApplicationsEnabled>
<MapPrefEntry MapPrefKey="bridge1">0</MapPrefEntry>
<MapPrefEntry MapPrefKey="creativesuite2-en_US">0</MapPrefEntry>
<MapPrefEntry MapPrefKey="golive8-en_US-LIC">0</MapPrefEntry>
