Got some trouble... Please answer my hypothetical post

Say i was to install a pirated version of photoshop 7 on OS X, but PS 7 talks to bigbrother.adobe.com quite a lot, and the pirated serial gets banned, disabling the app... I may or may not be looking for a way around this, like some way of stopping them talking, or fooling it somehow...

can anyone help?

I have a feeling that this thread will see the big, silver lock very shortly.

If you really want a way around this situation, buy a copy of Photoshop Elements 2.0. It's very inexpensive and has 90% of PS7's functionality.

There's a simple solution to the problem.

It takes a bit of work, but in the end it's all worth it, and involves no hacking at all.
