You're welcome, have fun with it.
Just to stay legal:
Adobe denies 'free' CS2 downloads are a giveaway
Read more: http://digitalartsonline.co.uk/news/creative-software/adobe-denies-free-cs2-downloads-are-giveaway/#ixzz2K3hhbsyFYesterday a number of tech blogs discovered that it's possible to download fully working Mac and Windows versions of Adobe's Creative Suite (CS2) for free – including Photoshop CS2, Illustrator CS2, InDesign CS2, Premiere Pro 2, Acrobat Pro 7 and even tools that make you feel a bit nostalgic including GoLive CS2 and Acrobat 3D. Now Adobe has responded saying that they're not free and if you don't own CS2, you shouldn't be downloading them.
Page is still up and I'm downloading After Effects now to test drive.
A good observation on the legal aspect of all of this.
My parting words on this is that it is extremely doubtful that the activations servers will be re-juiced just to make a point about a software version that's years old. The legal department at Adobe has got to be smarter than that. Dollars to doughnuts they just want the thing to go away and will make sure it doesn't happen again.
Then again, I can't shake the suspicion that there is a sly wink and nod to all of this. Perhaps there is a 'promotional' method to the madness? Nah, I can't get myself to accept Adobe is that diabolical.
Well if Adobe didn't want people to download them for free it wouldn't be there. It's their website. Not some cracked shank website. They just might get some people hooked on their products. The newer versions of course that will have a slight cost.
