Today I wanted to try some of the other programs from Adobe's CS5 Master Collection so, I downloaded the trial of CS5 MC or so I thought when I got to the screen where it asks me if I want to DL it as trial or enter a serial number for full there was already a valid serial number in the box so I clicked download without clicking trial and it began downloading when it was installed i opened Illustrator and it didn't give me a warning of how many trial days I had left and then I clicked help and where it should have said activate it said deactivate can someone explain what is going on it the programs are not in trial form from what I can see

Maybe they require a serial number for trials too? I know certain games do (Like my L4D2 did when I got the demo).

Guess you'll find out for sure in 30 days.

Well if it turns out to be true, then you just got a very expensive software as a gift from Adobe. So Congrats.

But just in case, use it as much as you can!

Well I went to register it and it said invalid serial # but it still shows no sign of being a trial
