not sure what this means... so delete this file?

There apparently is a crack out there for the Adobe suite that only works if your (illegally obtained) serial number is not sent to the Adobe servers for authentification. So the crack tells you to go and edit the hosts file and _ADD_ some lines so that DNS requests to adobe.com will not be resolved and thus your applications keep working. However, I have seen multiple instances where the user has mistaken the instructions of the cracker and has DELETED or REPLACED the whole hosts file, so that in the process localhost can't be resolved anymore, breaking Pd.
