Adobe prosecutes companies that make/sell software that circumvents
their password protection under the DMCA ... so even for legal
purposes such as this, I suspect you are out of luck.
Try searching the Web for cracks but be aware of the legal issues ...
you might, of course, persuade your employer to fly you to a country
where such things are not illegal and have a nice weekend getaway at
the same time <g>.
