Some users make a decision to make this file:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe PCD\cache\cache.db
READ ONLY, but this is not correct because Adobe can remotely change the file and every time any application will ask for a serial number.
All CRACKS at the moment make the applications to expire in early 2009, so DON'T USE THEM!!!
For
MacOSX:
DO NOT USE THE SERIAL IN THE INSTALLER
