Lots of questions no solutions! Activation is not exactly a new concept for MS, how can it be a BETA problem? Activate by phone? Wouldn't it be nice if they provided a phone number? What exactly are we trying to activate? Some BETA app. that's been handed out indiscrimatly to millions of users and is going to expire on 6/1/2007 anyway! What they want is the feedback so what do they do? Release the BETA with all the OneCare features except Anti-Virus then plant the first bomb by making activation difficult or impossible insuring that we'll be all over the net wide open and exposed to anything that's out there waiting! Still trying to install that Trend Micro program they link you to, downloads fine, won't install. Trend Micro support-not inspired, thankyou! What we should be doing is hammering MS in every way possible until they wake up and address this problem and be sure this issue gets all the negative press it deserves-email everyone! Well I have some time left before re-installing my old OS and after that's I'll start investigating LINEX. At least if you must struggle with a problem it should be a REAL problem not "I bought a new car and they forgot the ignition switch". I wonder how MS will respond if I wrap up this liiiittle dsk and mail it back to them along with my request for a refund on a defective product? GOOD LUCK everyone!

Activation will be part of the release version. It needs to be tested.
Please fill in the bug report. If you need to vent, that would be the place.
This is a forum for Beta testers and others. Microsoft sometimes looks in here, but I don't know how often, and there is no guarantee that they will see your post.

Tren Micro is Trend Micro, Microsoft is Microsoft. Although Trend Micro PCillin is available from Microsoft for download, it is still a Trend Micro product, and not a Microsoft product.

What we should be doing is hammering MS in every way possible until they wake up and address this problem and be sure this issue gets all the negative press it deserves-email everyone!

If you want to hammer Microsoft, use feedback. That way they will actually see your issues, and know about your hammering.

Well I have some time left before re-installing my old OS

Be sure to back up your data now. Vista sometimes crashes and becomes unbootable.

and after that's I'll start investigating LINEX. At least if you must struggle with a problem it should be a REAL problem not "I bought a new car and they forgot the ignition switch".

Betas are defective by definition. They are test software, if they weren't buggy, they would be release versions.
You're probably going to get what you paid for it, nothing. If you want them to reimburse you for postage, good luck with that.
