The only legal way is to contact Adobe Customer support again.

Redistribution of the software is not permitted outside of some specific circumstances. See this from the license

Distribution from a Server. If expressly permitted by Adobe, you may copy an image of the Software onto a computer within your Intranet solely for the purpose of facilitating the download and installation of the Software onto computers within the same Intranet. However, the number of license installations may not exceed the total number of the Software licenses you purchased. “Intranet” means a private, proprietary computer network accessible by you and your authorized employees and contractors. Intranet does not include portions of the Internet, network communities open to suppliers, vendors, or service providers, or network communities open to the public (such as membership or subscription-driven groups, associations, and similar organizations).

We do not. Personal information should not be posted. It is against the forum rules which are there to protect the unwary.

Adobe will decide if/when they want to re-instate the PM feature.

Hi

 

Do not post your email address as someone else asked you to. This is a public forum. It would be removed by a moderator if you were to do so.

Adobe employees have stated that support no longer has access to cs2 download links, but if you persist, hopefully they will provide you with links for the non activation cs3 software.

 

A few months ago adobe removed all public links to their software, so no one but adobe can provide software links.

Hi

 

CS2 is very old. Try this page: https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/downloaded-older-app.html. There are “Contact Us” links to Adobe Help. You will need an old OS, as the newer ones won’t run CS2. Let us know here if you succeed.
