Careful, it might actually be a pirated version. See message from another mailing list:

Be weary of Ebay.
I got stung with 2 boxes of Flash5 a couple years ago and 3 boxes of
Fireworks/Dreamweaver 4.0 Studio... shrink-wrapped, non-academic, and
otherwise "complete" and legit..

I laid off a few employees before growing large enough to actually open
up a few of them, and decided to re-list the remainders on ebay.
My ebay listings got cancelled.
Macromedia stepped in.
I wrote back, called etc... then finally got a call from Macromedia's
piracy division.
Guess what? My 100% legit-looking and feeling BOXES were clones. All the
way down to the Registration cards. I had to open a couple up to report
over the phone what serial #'s were inside.. bingo.. they were fakes.
I fedex'd ALL the boxed to MM.. it was confirmed beyond a doubt. What I
had bought from 3 different, reputable sellers, was counterfeit, boxed,
Macromedia Software.
I paid close to $1,200 for all of it on ebay over a few months period..
the best MM could do was offer me a discount on a single upgade to MX
Studio.
Ergo the net effect was a loss in the $1,000 range.
Be weary of software bought through channels other than the manufacturer
- I know only buy downloadable software FROM the manufactures sites, as
I did with MX2004 Pro Studio.
