We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

Win XP 64Bit won't activate, it gives me an error with that no-connection found shit, all firewalls disabled, and direct connection to modem. I don't mind activating and registering, just trying to get something done before this activation thing is up, and i don't really want to call anyone.(meaning the telephone a microsoft rep thing)
 
have you ever called them before? its not very painful. it only takes 5 minutes. even less if the automated system works (which didn't for me).
 
Is it a legal copy? Downloading from IRC != legal, so don't try activating it.
 
just call them. It's all automated. All it does is ask you a couple stupid questions and then you read your code to their system, and it will read a code back to you to activate it.

you shouldn't have to talk to anyone. Their system is pretty intuitive and accurate.
 
Well after all this, I guess I will call it, yes it was legal, why wouldnt i get a legal one, it was free.
