Default Activation Problems

more like 45 minutes

I hope we do not have a similar situation with Vista.

Yes, they are aware. Give them a chance to resolve the issue. Trying to
activate the programs every 30 minutes won't get the problem fixed any
faster.

Geez - and people have called *me* an idealist.

Someone made the comment that everyone and his dog are trying to download
it. I'm convinced that both dog and master have posted "Me too" in the
newsgroups related to activation problems. I have a feeling that Vista will
be a lot like this. I'm going to shut down my Internet access when that goes
public.

Hi Doug,

The activation server issue should now be corrected. Check to see that your firewall is setup to allow access to the internet and
try the activation again and post back with your result, either way, please.

Got through finally, It's working now

Guys,

The activation servers are being hammered at the moment.

Keep trying to activate. You will eventually get there.

But don't all do it at once. ... Depending on the product you are
testing you shouldn't necessarily need to activate immediately.
