Actually, the suit was filed not by Adobe but by a German law firm not directly representing Adobe. Apparently under German law you file a copyright infringment suit on behalf of a copyright holder and collect a fee for doing so, even if that suit was filed without their knowledge or consent.

Hi, The reason for the name change is a lawsuit: Adobe sued, saying that Illustrator is a copyrighted name.... isn't that fscking pathetic? I wonder if someone is going to copyright the word "Dictionary" if they publish a dictionary, or "car" if they sell a car!!
