CS3 activation unsuccessful, error 194:12

Ok, I don't know if I should make it public and it pains me that I had to stoop so low to get my apps working, but there are other people with this problem, so I guess I should post how this issue got resolved.

I'm angry at myself for trying to settle it the legal way asking the customer support one after another for more than a month. Some of the staff were really kind and if nothing, I learned some new things, but they were downright useless because phone activation is probably some kind of taboo or what. They would persistently force me to unistall the CS3 and install to no end, even though I told them that I had formatted my harddrive and run a different OS...

Whatever, long story short, the only known solution to this problem is to download a keygen and activate the CS3 with it through phone activation. The only problem is that you don't have the serial number you purchased in the application itself, but don't waste your time trying to be all good asking the support questions they don't know or are forbidden to answer.

I still would like to report somewhere that I'm using an illegal serial number due to those circumstances and post the Software Licence Certificate I received upon purchasing the CS3 somewhere, so that nobody comes to bother me about that in the future, does anybody know how to do it?

Last note: I'm really curious how the Adobe wants to manage the CC versions when they have to go through this kind of activation every month or so. I'm glad I bought the boxed versions.

attach a screenshot of that error message.
