Office 2010 Beta Expires in 5 Days?

I just got a notification that my Office 2010 Beta will expire in 5 days. I thought it was good until Oct? Did I miss a notification somehow? Thanks

I get an unknown batch file when I run that. I put C:\windows\system32\ospprun.exe
Any suggestions? I know this can't be as hard as I am making it
when I manually follow that path, I don't see that file in system32 folder

When the 5 day warning came up again, I saw where it stated that if you are using 2010 beta click here. It sent me to this microsoft site and had some activation keys. I tried one and it worked. At least for now.

You rearm again. Every month for 6 months. Dead in Oct sometime I read.

The use of the activation key should work to keep the software active without any further intervention.

If I remember correctly the expiry date should be shown in the File - Help Dialog
