RE: Got my MS Invite email by hmaster on 11-29-2005 at 08:06 PM

Beta started back when Windows Live was announced if I recall correctly. The downloads should work fine.

I got this:

Welcome to the MSN Beta Program!


Thanks for signing up.  We understand how excited you are to get started, and we

way for us to get your feedback.  We know the waiting is the hardest part, but
soon we’ll be sending you an invitation for a specific Windows Live beta—and
that will make the wait worthwhile.

unmonitored e-mail address, so please do not reply to this message.

Does that mean I get to test something? :P

your gonna hafta wait till you get the email telling you what program youll be testing
RE: Got my MS Invite email by Dragular on 11-30-2005 at 01:33 AM

But it means I have been selected right? Or is it more probable they never contact me at all? :P

P.S. Is this a "rare" email or have a lot of people received it?


RE: Got my MS Invite email by EvilSeph on 11-30-2005 at 03:16 AM

I believe everyone who applied recieved that email...don't quote me on that though.

RE: Got my MS Invite email by Reaper on 11-30-2005 at 10:28 PM

RE: Got my MS Invite email by Hank on 11-30-2005 at 10:42 PM

RE: Got my MS Invite email by Reaper on 11-30-2005 at 11:12 PM

Windows Live Safety Beta

its like an online PC health check, kinda cool. but uses a hell of a lot of CPU


RE: Got my MS Invite email by azn angel on 11-30-2005 at 11:37 PM

i wana start testing but i have no idea what im doing so it would be pointless


RE: Got my MS Invite email by wj on 11-30-2005 at 11:45 PM

Dern, I didnt get the e-mail...

Oh well, back to testing Office 12 :-P


RE: Got my MS Invite email by Hank on 12-01-2005 at 12:06 AM

i didnt get an  email either but Maybe there waiting for the beta's to be started in the country your in before they email? i dunno


RE: Got my MS Invite email by Ezra on 12-01-2005 at 12:50 AM

I'm not invited, but I did use that new online scanner some weeks ago. Isn't it a public beta thing?, or is it something different :P

EDIT: http://safety.live.com/site/en-US/default.htm?

Oh, and btw, that scanner never worked for me :S, gets stuck at 21%

EDIT again: works now :)

I'm in the US, I was at a microsoft event yesterday in Seattle (Product Launch for SQL Server 2005) and despite not geting invited for this beta, I get to have my fun with SQL server 2005, Server 2003 R2, and Office 12 :-P
RE: Got my MS Invite email by Hank on 12-01-2005 at 01:56 AM

maybe they'll send out more as the beta moves on ,  im not overly dissapointed i havent gotten an invite , the chances that i woulda declined beta testing  a product woulda been good if it wasnt what i wanted

RE: Got my MS Invite email by ~INVASION~ on 12-06-2005 at 02:48 AM

well if you were emailed and it said you sign up under your email address using u would prolly have to give someone your email, if its just a sign up page where you put info in then the link they gave you might work if you dont use it
