ADOBE CS3 Font Issue Resolved - "something prevented the text engine from being initialized

Having trouble with Adobe Photoshop? I ran across an issue with uneditable text in a photoshop file on a designer's pc. After uninstalling and reinstalling didn't work, I found a solution in adobe's online forums. If you get this message when opening a file:
"Could not complete your request because something prevented the text engine
from being initialized."

You can fix it by closing photoshop, and deleting the lst files found in this location:
%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe\TypeSupport

Adobe will recreate the files next time pshop is launched and your problem will be gone.

Here is an image of what it looks like in photoshop.
