How did it get there?

Did you install the Adobe repo via an RPM, by any chance? Something like "adobe-release-i386-1.0-1.noarch.rpm"?

If so, here's what you need to do:

1. Open a terminal window and enter the following commands:
2. su
3. (your root password)
4. rpm -e adobe-release-i386-1.0-1

Otherwise, this should work:

1. Open a terminal window and enter the following commands:
2. su
3. (your root password)
4. cd /etc/yum.repos.d
5. rm adobe-linux-i386.repo
