The only way to do what you want to do with any programs and/or tools from Adobe is to unencrypt the PDF file first in Acrobat and saving the file without security.

To answer your specific questions:

(1) No, there is no way to "convert the PostScript file to PDF" with any Adobe program if the PDF file from which printing was performed was protected.

(2) No, Distiller has no such settings which, if they existed, would make PDF protection totally useless.

(3) No.

(4) No, not with any Adobe products!
