I also don't have a legitimate boxed copy at the moment to compare against unfortunately. The fake discs I got have Adobe graphics printed on them, though the quality of the graphics suggest that a fairly low-end printer was used; perhaps a sign of a fake. For me the "Serial Fix" folder was the dead giveaway. If you haven't already, I'd take a look at the directory structure of your discs and see if there's anything equally as obvious. Hi Julek,

Could you check the sticker on the box if there is something written that suggests that this software is pirated. Or maybe CDs have a label "Made in China"? Can you see any difference from original software? Thanks in advance! You can buy such pirated software on dhgate dot com for $15 when you buy wholesale ;)
