Same... Trying again.
 
Comfirming links just become dead and before that I was getting the error "unable to validate your customer information".
 
WOW.... I GOT IN!! Since I got the error I used the back button and used the saved sesion even though the links are not working. Then after trying diferent options I UNTICK the option about shipping address the same as billing address. Tried again an now I'm subscribed. The problem remain that it isn't giving keys at the moment.
Probably this will help members that got the error and still have the sesion open in the browser as "CU" and "Unheard". Good luck
 
this is the reason why it should not be let out to SD lol

XP is really a more stable release of 2000 with the updated GUI

i guess you can argue, why no Windows 3.0 while 3.1 is there?
I would assume they just list the most stable version of Windows (2k/XP is release 5) in there?

I got one for Vista, but now I'm trying Office 2007 and am having no luck. I'll try again in a bit.

Appears to be so. I logged in from a different PC and I had no technet account registered- wouldn't recognize the number they gave me.

Oh well.
 
I think if you completed the survey registration before the links were leaked your subscription will remain intact as the one I created has an expiration date in June of 2010. It's all the people who tried to create accounts only using the actual technet link that are being locked out, and from some reports people who registered on the very last day the survey was up. I think once you have your keys they are good forever.

By the time I found the survey link, it was dead. 🙁

I did get one Vista Ultimate x64 key & the ISO, though- maybe it'll work.

Yup, mine says June 2010 as well.
 
Well, it was pretty clearly too good to be true.

That said, I managed to get a whole bunch of product keys, so it wasn't bad for a bit of work.

possibly. I've been reading about it on a few different sites and seems like they are going to review how you created the account probably if you enrolled in the feedback program or not then make a decision.
