    Choose the option to activate by phone.
    Call Microsoft at the displayed number, usually done in about 5 - 10
    minutes.

    That long!? If I'm on a cellphone, that's a lot of air time used up to get
    something to work that I already paid for. What a drag.

    Then do not use a cell phone.
    I certainly would not since it may increase my costs.
    But you are free of course to use a more expensive option to suit you.

    See my other post relating to your dangerous suggestion about getting
    the non existent SP-3 for Windows XP.
    (Hint, there is no such thing so whatever that site has is of
    questionable integrity at best)
    But then you already know that.

    Some people, especially younger people who can't get a regular pots line,
    use cellphones. I guess they could carry their computers over to a payphone
    and do it that way. That would be another good Wintard suggestion.

    Welcome to the real world.

    I'm afraid Doris has become delusional in her old age. Talking about
    things that never were and never will be.
    Pity.

    "Wintard suggestion"
    Very typical.
    Your need to toss an insult to prop your own insecurity.
    Your own need to insult in a feeble attempt to prop up your position
    reflects well on your character.

    People have choices, even the young.
    Like everyone else, they need to accept the consequences of that
    choice.

    You can either use the automated phone system which doesn't work for most
    people and then you have to speak to a live tech (in India) who will issue
    you a new activation code.
