Re: Why is 0ffice 2007 Beta not connecting to activation site ?

Rearm all your security things and try again Monday. MS is having problems with its servers, so keep trying it over the next few days. Trying it once a day is sufficient.

As I try to activate the programs in Office 2007 Beta I get the message that
the program cannot connect to the site and that I might have problems with my
Internet connection. Simultaneously the pressing the help on the same
activation window, goes immediately to the internet as do all the other
programs. I have disarmed all firewalls, security settings and what have you
to enable connection, all to no avail.
