Can't download Office Beta

[Kim Young]

I signed up to download the Beta version of Office 2007. I got a product key,
but when I click on the link to download, I get an error message that the
file can't be found. Can someone tell me the solution to the problem?

I went through there and got to
https://onlinekey.ltg.info/shop/regconfirm.aspx, which says to click on the
product name to download. That's when I get the error message.

Thanks for the reply!

The actual link that is giving me the 404 error is:

the following message. -An error occurred while processing your request.

Strangely, about 4:00 yesterday (6/24), I got it to work. I went through the
process of getting it again, and it was fine. I have no clue why it worked
that time and not the first.

I also have been unsuccessful at downloading since 6/4/06. I was able to get
all the other downloads ok today. Has anyone been able to get office beta on
6/25/06 EST 4:30p.
thanks,
