I have just downloaded the Windows 7 Beta but I am running into problems with the product key, I am getting an error and need a solution, does anyone know if this has been fixed?
It’s still possible to use the Windows 7 Beta but I will need to fix this error in time. I had no problems with the download but started getting errors with the product key.
My friend said that Microsoft confirmed that they are having trouble distributing Windows 7 beta product keys at the moment. Does anyone know anymore on this?

WARNING! If you can’t figure out the at least two microsoft web sites (Microsoft.com & Live.com) need to be put into IE’s trusted zones to be able to view the beta license number web page without an error THEN YOU SHOULD NOT INSTALL WINDOWS 7. Microsoft should have made sure that the general public could download the beta without using firefox. Most of the general public is clueless about Internet Explorer’s Trust Zones and how they affect their web browsing experience. This shows that Microsoft coders are not properly testing for usability, if they do not change this Windows 7 will be another OS BOMB that will not work for the general public.
You can get your product key again, start download again, when site gives you the key, abort the download. (no need to download the iso again)
Microsoft is issuing same serial keys again and again, give a try to given below keys.
