But my take down notice send to Go Daddy has never been answered. A compromised server, used as a relay by a phishing campaign, has been hosted (according to Whois records) by Go Daddy. I came across Go Daddy during analyzing a phishing campaign months ago. I've never noticed, that Go Daddy belongs to Microsoft.
Obscurity, conspiracy, oh my God, what have they done? Some users commented within my German blog, that this feature works like a charm. The user has to enter the installation id and receives the activation id – plain and simple. The link http: // bit.ly/2cQPMCb, shortened by bit.ly, points to a website https: // /mobileweb/ … that provides an ability to activate Microsoft Office (see screenshot below).Īfter selecting a 6 or 7 Digits entry, an activation window with numerical buttons to enter the installation id will be shown (see screenshots shown below).
Then a reader pointed me within a comment to a Self Service for Mobile website. I've posted an article Office 2010: Telefonaktivierung eingestellt? – Merkwürdigkeit II about the Office 2010 telephone activation issue within my German blog, back in January 2017. A blog reader posted a tip: Use Mobile devices activation… But also users of Microsoft Office 2010 or Microsoft Office 2013 are affected. Microsoft has confirmed this issue for Office 2016 users having a non subscriber installation. The activation dialog box shows the message " Telephone activation is no longer supported for your product". If a user re-installs Office, the phone activation fails. Within my blog post Office Telephone activation is no longer supported error I've addressed the basis issue. Activation by phone is required, if the maximum Internet activation threshold is reached. There are several possibilities to activate an installed product, via Internet or via Telephone for instance.
I'm curious if there's a registry hack to disable that authentication check, consequently allowing us to use one license key across something like 50 computers and omitting the need for 50 different activation keys.Microsoft describes how to activate Microsoft Office 2013, 2016 and Office 365 within this document.
So since there are all these machines on their own private network, not connected to the network, I feel like there's gonna be issues with office checking for authenticity. Sounds like every 30 days each system confirms if it's a valid copy?
Then I asked how do windows activation keys work. To which they didn't really have an answer. So I asked how that will work when deploying to something like 40 pcs. Now they're using a key management system. My IT department is working on a new image to deploy for them, one of the things that is necessary to the systems, activating windows (most up to date version). Okay so let's clear this up.i have a bunch of machines on their own private vlan.
