I just found this Memento from http://www.adobe.com/de/downloads/cs2_downloads/index.html.
It hast earlier also been available from Wayback Maschine but today it reads Sorry. This URL has been excluded from the Wayback Machine..

I tried to extract the relevant table with the command

pandoc --from https://archive.today/255q5 --to markdown_strict --output extracted.md

but it did not really succeed that way, to publish it here.

Later on I tried https://tabletomarkdown.com/convert-website-table-to-markdown/ and that worked really cool. Just remember to paste the table (after marking on the website) not the html-code. I just changed some bits for better readability.

Still searching another source for "ADBEAudition_loopolgy.7z"

hi, i made a big effort to find archived links to almost every single resource a while back: catbox.moe / pastebin

it's in all languages and for both platforms, includes also pdfs for installation guides and some extras (forums with solutions to installation bugs nd stuff)

what could not be found is marked as [LOST], but almost everything is here.

sadly i did not format this in markdown or anything, it's a weird txt file
