Adobe support will no longer reset an activation count... if you can't DE-activate (lost or crashed computer) and you are receiving an activation 'used up' message (I can't remember the exact message) there is no solution

The person bought CS5 and has a right to use it for as long as s/he deems fit. Obviously doesn't want a subscription. If Adobe allowed buying products again rather than renting products, then you might not be getting so many people wanting help with the software they actually bought.
