Now, they won't open. I used a variety of tools (Adobe, Ghostscript, etc) but was only able to dump the postscript to a file. That's *ok*, but it only likes then being dumped to a printer, the security code is still embedded, I cannot make a new PDF...
dumping to a printer removes the whole reason for having an ebook in the first place.

Man that sux, sorry to hear about this...this is just a pdf file, so there's none of that. But now that's something that I'm going to look into when purchasing eBooks from now on. Thanks for the heads-up!
