I believe that the ElcomSoft Web site was originally hosted by Verio, a
US-based ISP, and that the Advanced eBook Processor was sold by Register
Now (http://www.regnow.com/), an online reseller located in Issaquah,
Washington.

See affidavit for Dmitry Sklyarov's at:

"8. Daryl Spano told me the following: 

a. Adobe purchased a copy of the Elcomsoft unlocking software over the
Internet, and an Adobe engineer told Spano that the unlocking key worked
as Elcomsoft claimed. 
b. Adobe purchased the program through Elcomsoft through a U.S. based
company that Elcomsoft was using as a means of collection a $99 fee for
purchase and usage of the unlocking key. Nathanson and Spano told me
that this company was Register Now! (http://www.regnow.com) Dept #
1170-75, PO Box 1816 Issaquah, Washington 98027, 1-877-353-7297.
Register Now! collected the $99 fee that pays for the unlocking key.
Thereafter, Elcomsoft, after receiving verification from Register Now!,
electronically sent the unlocking key registration code from Elcomsoft
to the purchaser (Adobe) in San Jose, California, in the Northern
District of California. Spano provided documents to me reflecting the
transaction and showing that the unlocking key was purchased by Adobe on
June 26, 2001. "
