Activation doesn't work over the internet and the telephone numbers listed don't work either!
Have tried discussing this in your chatroom, after been transferred 4 times, your adviser stopped responding!
Really irritated by your appalling service. Please could a real person take responsibility for this, I need an authorisation code.

CS3 is 12 years old. The aging activation & registration servers were taken offline.
STEP 1
Uninstall your old CS3 software and manually remove the old Adobe PCD folder. It's also a good idea to run the Adobe Cleaner tool to wipe old files off your system.

STEP 2
Obtain a new CS3 installer and serial number that does not require activation. See this link for details.

I hope you have an older operating system. You will need one to keep using legacy CS3 software. At some point though, you may have to decide which is more important -- using outdated software or having a modern operating system with all the latest security updates.
Good luck!
