Not sure if it's just my laptop, (MacBook Pro 15" running 10.6.8), but immediately after installing Adobe Drive v3, my CS4 programs began to crash on startup, (InDesign), or as soon as you tried to create a new file, or open an existing file, (Photoshop and Illustrator). Acrobat 9.x was not effected. I never checked the other CS4 Design Premium programs because I hardly use them. All other applications on this computer have no problems at all. ONLY these Adobe CS4 apps. I played with preferences to no avail. Tried another user account with same results. But, immediately after UNINSTALLING Adobe Drive 3, all of my Adobe apps were perfectly normal and stable again. Interested in seeing if anyone had a similar experience.
