I've had it with Adobe........ I've had it with pretending it is acceptable to fill peoples computers the vicious viruses........ I'm fed up pretending something is up with my computer when its performance has just been done in by Adobe..............

Its like this...... i lose my computer........ so I foolishly download a trial copy of the new version of photoshop on to the new computer I have to buy.............. cos I don't have to hand the original discs that I had in in NYC or in DC or in storage somewhere....... instead of just immediately facing the music and buying a new copy........ anyway the free month long trial comes to an end I haven't really been anywhere near my apartment in NYC or the storage place.......

So I go on line pay the 700 bucks for a new version of photoshop....... but they don't immediately give me a key for it ?....... Then they ring me...... they ask some mundane questions ......... but then tell me the key will arrive by email......... i also speak to AMEX who think it might be a fraudulent charge........ everyone says they are fine........ except an email comes through telling me the sale has been cancelled........ with no explanation........ but tells me I can get the program from local retail outfits........ great....... just great............. is it cos Im tying to download from the States when i am in London ?....... I wonder if this is cos I am registered with them in NYC but am attempting to buy the program from the UK........ but...... i don't know they never say.........

Anyway i go to the Apple store and buy a ridiculously overpriced photoshop disk......... but when i get it home the program still won''t run....... can't be opened with the key on the box......... so now I have now spent 640 pounds now on a program that is being deliberately disabled in my computer by Adobe..... They have downloaded spyware or some kind of virus that now stops me running photoshop. I have uninstalled every Adobe program in my computer and downloaded so called cleaning software from their site but to no avail....... What ever the malicious bug they have planted in my machine is it can't be removed that easy .......

Yeah its pretty sickening........

They are robbers ....... The crime scene tape should be round the Adode building..... I've paid another thousand dollars for another brand new version of photoshop but my machine is now set so that it cannot run photoshop....... it either gives me a warning telling me the architecture of this computer does not support photoshop......... or that license for this program has expired........ when clearly neither of these things is true.... this is a problem entirely introduced by me using their so called 'free' test software for a month. In most other areas of commerce to sell something to someone that you have deliberately disabled so that it cannot work is called fraud.
