Here is a link:

As far as I can tell this is a legitimate offer of 'obsolete' software
by Adobe. I understand that Audition 3 is part of cs2. There is also an
old version of Photoshop available on that page. Serial numbers are
included on the page.
They've now changed the rules, so you need a valid Adobe ID before you
can sign in and reach the download page. They've noticed how many people
were downloading the programs, which, officially, are not compatible
with any OS later than XP, anyway.
The offer was officially only to let people with a licence to download
and re-install their paid for software following the switching off of
the authentication server.
I've just tried this and got through. I had to give my name and
address to register wth the site, but I was then allowed to the
download page. I then had to click 'Accept' on a popup that said they
had disabled their activation server for CS2 products. However I was
able to download and install Audition and Photoshop to my XP system.
In the Terms & Conditions it said that Activation was required after
30 days, so I experimentally added two months to my PC's date, but
Audition still worked. In fact the 'Activation' menu bar item is
greyed out.
