Or you could simply take the file you downloaded and open it with WinRAR. You'll then see the same exact contents while skipping a few of your steps. Extract them all to a folder and burn them. It'll run fine with autoplay and everything.

I'm right across the river from you in Newport, KY. Hello neighbor :laugh:

We might get ours around the same time

I only have PowerArchiver but I can extract the second CD but not the first CD. Can you help me further on this?

Is there a limit to how often I can activate Office? I would like to start using Office 2007 but I am formating my computer in a couple of weeks anyway.

You cant extract the 1st one, that is why I said earlier how to get it out of the temp folder when you first run it before installing...

Recieved Office yesterday. I'm in Maryland

I know their are restrictions with using Vista in a virtual enviorment, but what about Office.

Question for running Office 2007 on mac using Parallels.

I installed and opened office running Parallels(using bootcamp image) and it wanted to be activated. Then when I booted into bootcamp it needed to be activated again. Is their a limit to how many times Office can be activated.

Thanks

As it turns out, our receptionist checked the mail yesterday BEFORE the mail arrived. My powertogether stuff was sitting in the box all day.

I received Both Vista and ofice. Thanks so much Mark and the Vista/Office teams. I feel really fortunate to get this stuff for free.

Thanks!

BTW, in Rhode Island, last name starts with S obviously. :D

I will be sure to hold you to that when it doesn't come by then. :devil:

Yeah I really wanted it before the launch day but I guess the mailman is going to keep me waiting.

    • Celebrating Windows XP's 25th anniversary this year

      By carols23 · Posted

      If I could, I would commemorate it the best way possible: Replacing old machines that are still running Windows XP with something more modern, stable and better.     Noone and nothing should be running Windows XP in 2026.
    • Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo by Ivan Jenic Image: Screenshot Google is testing a new reCAPTCHA method that asks you to wave at your camera to prove you're human. So, besides solving puzzles and reading distorted text, you can now use your computer’s camera to pass the verification test. When the hand gesture verification is triggered, your browser asks for camera access and prompts you to perform a simple gesture, like a wave or an open palm. Google says it records a short video of the movement and uses AI to extract 21 hand-knuckle coordinates to complete the verification process. The video is then immediately deleted, and Google swears it doesn't keep it. The process alone can be uncomfortable for people who wouldn’t want their biometric data, which hand scans technically qualify as, recorded. But it gets even more nuanced, as early testers discovered that the new hand-waving reCAPTCHA can be passed with a simple stock image. A user on X tested the new challenge using a stock image of a hand fed through OBS Virtual Camera, and it passed. I wanted to verify it, so I tried the same thing. It took me a few tries and a few stock images, but in the end, I was also able to pass the test. I simply had to readjust the stock image of a generic person waving inside OBS, and Google’s mechanism registered it as a legitimate hand gesture. Once again, it didn’t even have to be a video or an AI-generated hand animation. Given the simplicity of the process, the entire action can be automated in minutes. All it takes is a simple Python script to render the new reCAPTCHA method obsolete. And it doesn’t even have to be an AI bot, which is usually used for solving puzzles and other verification methods. The new reCAPTCHA method is still in its early phase, and Google will, hopefully, update its AI to at least reject still images. However, this incident, combined with users’ initial skepticism about Google’s practices regarding user data, likely won’t make too many people wave at the camera anytime soon.

      Apparently not. I know it is on Edge for business at the moment, but how long will it be before it become on the home version of Edge?
