Installing Fireworks CS3 - LOCKED, dead program

I recently got a new computer and I'm trying to install Fireworks CS3.  I've downloaded the installer file from the Adobe website but when I try to start it a window appears saying "This page can't be displayed".  It then references https://www.adobeereg.com.  This website does not appear to exist.  What gives?

 

Thanks,

Paul

Correct answer kglad

I  just bought 1 CS3 Title and I was planning to buy others.

No one warned me that they wouldn't work after 30 days.

I'm spending about 150-450 Dollars here.

1] Will they still work?

2] What happens on the adobe.com site instead of the authentication URL?

3] Can you explain the difference?

4] Will I be able to export it from adobe.com in case adobe.com also closes the CS3 support?

😞 Thank you.


information posted in 2017 was accurate then, but is no longer relevant or accurate.

 

in 2020, anything other than the current adobe programs being sold are not sold by adobe and, if they're being currently sold, they're are pirated and won't work after the trial period.

use the cs3 link below:

Download and installation help for Adobe links

Download and installation help for Prodesigntools links are listed on most linked pages.  They are critical; especially steps 1, 2 and 3.  If you click a link that does not have those steps listed, open a second window using the Lightroom 3 link to see those 'Important Instructions'.
