  weird update message locks me up!

  This is probably a stupid question, but I can’t figure it out…

  On my G4 (Dual 1Ghz, 1.5 RAM, OSX 10.3.3), every time I try to launch Photoshop lately, it gives me a window saying “Updating Adobe Online components from Adobe.com / 1 of 2 being downloaded”. The file it is trying to download is “AWEXFiles.txt”.

  While that shouldn’t probably be a problem, it doesn’t ever fully download anything. I just get the window, and the “beach ball”. After a while (several hours usually) it might move to the second file. But usually it just sits there and never finishes launching Photoshop.

  THOUGHTS?!?!?!?! This is making me nuts, and I need to be able to use my Photoshop…

  Any help would be appreciated…

  Thanks.

  Oops… I meant to mention that I am running Photoshop 7.0…

  I know, I know… update my Photoshop… But, outside of that, any thoughts?
