CS2 Trial

Hey you!
I have a problem with my activation of Photoshop CS2. I have downloaded the trial version of CS2 from adobe.com. But I didn't want to install it on my internet-pc, so I copyed it to my other one. But I can't chose the option "activate" at the Help-Button. The program only allows me at the start to buy it (in usage of the internet). I haven't internet on that PC! So can anyone tell me if I can't use it no more after the trial-periode has expired? Or what am I doing wrong?
(sorry for my very bad english)

Who me?

Putting it simply, I know that PS trial version "knows" all about the PC that the trial version is installed on, this is to prevent reinstallation of the trial when it expires, ad infinitum. From what you are describing it must also recognise the PC it is originally downloaded onto, this would also prevent you from installing it on other PCs when your present installation trial period expires.(one download, one trial)

Thanks for your answer! I tried to install it on another PC and there it worked, too. So PS doesn't know where you did download it. But I've downloaded another Trial of PS and this one had the option to activate it - I don't know why there are some different Trials available. So my problem is solved =)
