    Nope, they are all the same. The 10 keys that have been posted here a while ago are now universal and no matter how many times you try it will still give you a key from that list of 10 keys. This still work with no problems though.

    Are you saying they are NOT giving out the keys?

    The furthest I can get (I.E), should I try firefox? Is I can confirm email address, then it opens a search window and returns, "Not Found
    similar to yesterday. I received 64 key yesterday and have a feeling it's my own now, however, just wanted to make sure that if it was given out that I could install on laptop.

    According to the last poster, they are giving out the same 10 keys to everyone?

    Yes you are right. Yesterday, they were giving out unique keys to everyone but due to heavy traffic I guess, they have made 10 keys universal. 5x 64bit and 5x 32bit. So even if you go to the official website and download it from there, you will still get a key from the list of the 10 keys that are universal...

    these 10 keys here:

    Keys for all!!!
