nasty virus on my computer. I don't have access to a phoneline near my

Hi MWard627,

This tutorial will show you how to extend the trial period for Vista up to 120 days if needed. You will need to do a phone activation if you can ever get near a phone line. Look at related link #1 on the same link below for how.

Hope this helps you,
