After furious head scratching, h asked:
| microsoft office 2003 was installed on my computer shortly after i
| purchased my computer from hewlet packard in argentina. i paid for
| the installation reeived a code for installation and for three years
| used the program and had no problem
| suddenly on november 18 i started to have problems, after several
| attempts to download my mail i started to get an error code, i called
| a lawyer,accountant,doctor,and a rocket scientist to help me figure
| out
| how to find the explanation for the error code, and found out that
| micorosft had cut off my mail service because of volume. hey i do not
| know how programs are installed in other countries, but here in the
| third world, you have to go to some computer sales store and they
| install the program, since almost
| one hundred percent of the programs you advertise,sell,offer, etc.
| are not available here in the third world, as has happened to me,
| after downloading the programs, when i tried to install i got a
| notice that the program was not available in my country. now instead
| of helping the poor jerk who thought they were paying for a
| legitimate serivice and program from microsoft, i
| have no email server, can you tell me how these computer sales stores
| got
| the original version to resell, why dont you control the number of
| copies that can be made, hey you are micorosoft. i am out the money,
| lost my mails, cannot use any other program because you have blocked
| the program completely and the only suggestion from your help page is
| that i pay almost three hundred dollars for a new version. did it
| ever occur to you that when i got outlook installed three years ago
| the volume had not been exceeded, that i have a legitimate copy,
| how could you have approved all the other copies over the years and
| now
| cut me off, without warning. i am sure that there are plenty of other
| not so honest people who will continue to use the service because
| they know how to get around the problem, while the rest of us have no
| apparent way out. without any notice,
| at will you change the services,programs, etc. and then to top it off
| when i try
| to get technical support you want to charge me a hundred dollars to
| help me, the only one you are helping is yourselves, to my money
