Photoshop CS activation help

Hi all, i'm new here...

I have a Photoshop CS installed in my computer but the 30-day grace period is gone. I tried to re-install it to continue practicing with the software but still it won't allow me to use it.

What's the solution for this? I appreciate any help...thanks!

Well besides buying it, you really don't have another choice. If it really means that much to you, you could reformat your hard drive and reinstall it--that's probably frowned upon by Adobe though.

There are som cracking methods though, but I dont believe this forum supports it.
I would go for the safest method as Galaphile mentioned. Buying it.

Yeah that information is stored in the registry, or another hidden place on the computer. Just uninstalling it won't fix it because that information is still there.
