On a side note, Adobe is giving away its flagship Photoshop (actually the entire creative suite) away for free, with VALID serial numbers. However, they're giving away only the CS2 version though. EDIT: It's a semi-official free version. But it's still a great deal!

You can fetch it from here: http://www.adobe.com/downloads/cs2_downloads/index.html

"You have heard wrong! Adobe is absolutely not providing free copies of CS2!

What is true is that Adobe is terminating the activation servers for CS2 and that for existing licensed users of CS2 who need to reinstall their software, copies of CS2 that don't require activation but do require valid serial numbers are available."


It's not a give away it's for existing owners. It's not a great deal, it's for valid CS2 owners.


Actually, these serials are legit and they seem to work. It WAS earlier only for existing users, but I read somewhere later that adobe changed that. That's why you don't even need to sign in to download these (usually you are required to sign in)

Did you actually read the article you linked?

"Adobe says in order to legally use CS2, users still require a purchased license."


>It has not. Instead, Adobe has made CS2 even easier to get, by removing the Adobe ID requirement. The company created a new CS2 download page, and this time around, it had no registration requirement at all.

Read this. I hope you read it atleast.
