Activation Problem

Ok, you are running 5365.8 based on your header, so that excludes MSDN,
which means you are technical tester or TAP Customer, I recommend you log in
to connect and try one of the 5 keys made available for 5342 interim. If the
problem persist, please report the issue in private ng for product
activation and send in a report.

That's why it won't work. That place is not legal in case you didn't
already know that. Just wait a short while longer and you can get the
public beta legally. I know the temptation is there and you just want it
now, but seriously, wait just a little bit longer and hopefully you can get
the public beta. The public beta will probably be here within a few weeks.
(Probably before this month is over, although I'm not certain.) So just
wait around.

The source is the reason why. Like Travis suggest and I recommend, please
wait until BETA 2 is released to the public.

Well, it says this there, which is interesting:

"Windows Vista, the next, next generation OS from Microsoft. This is the
February 2006 CTP Build 5381 for those inclined to such information. "

I would wonder what exactly is in that download.

I'm curious about the product key. The download is easily available it
seems (I didn't), but what about the product key? Didn't it ask for one?
Was one supplied?

P.S. I also should mention that I have Previously Reported People who were
Promoting Ebay.com as a Source for getting Windows Vista in the Win FX
Newsgroups, so if you think that I am kidding, just try me.
