How do you fix error 24:24?

[LighthouseChristine280352]

I have had the program 'Adobe Photoshop CS2' on my computer for years and recently I have been unable to use it as it displays Activation Error 24:24. I would appreciate some help in fixing the error.

Yours gratefully,

Chris

When you ask a question you need to provide some basic information

Mac or Windows, and EXACTLY which version of the operating system?

Recent Mac AND Windows operating systems have been known to cause "odd" problems

Are you using a computer Administrator account with full read/write permission?
