CS3 can't find the download link anymore [CS3 is dead]

Question

I've been happy with my Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium Windows, English Download since I bought it, my plan was the download version for 599.00.  My machine died ( melted motherboard ) and I want to get CS3 back onto a new one.  Do you still support those of us who bought it outright when that was the only way to get it?  It still exists as a rental, but what about supporting your customers from before the rental plan.  I still have my activation key.

[Moderator moved from Using the Community (forums) to Download & Install.] I'm afraid not.  CS3 from 2007 is officially dead.  It's impossible to reinstall Creative Suite 3 and earlier because Adobe's activation servers went offline several years ago.  Creative Suite is no longer legally sold by any vendor, retailer or in any country now.MODERN OPTIONS:Photoshop Elements or Premier Elements (approx $100, no subscription needed)https://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-elements.htmlCreative Cloud Photography Plan -- approx $10/month for 12 months.
