Does adobe allow you to reinstall your product if your computer crash?

Would Adobe allow you to reinstall the product without no questions asked if the computer you had it installed on crashed and you have the actually CD and serial number on the back of the CD case and wanted to reinstall it? Would it let you reinstall the product or is there some type of Mechanism that alerts you that the product has been previously installed? Do I go to my reseller and ask them to reinstate the key? How does this work? Is there some type of time limit before the reinstall just shuts down? Any help is greatly appreciated.

I've never had a problem reinstalling Adobe products. As long as you have the legitimate Key and CD and only have it installed on the one computer, they won't give you any trouble. Microsoft forces you to call them after a certain number of activations to prove that you are using a legit copy. They will ask you a couple questions like "how many computers is it installed on?" and "Did you change any of your hardware?". Once you answer those they'll give you a code to reactivate it. I'm not sure if Adobe does this or not, but my thought is you'll have no trouble.
