20091114-Sites Down

Written by

Since I didn’t want to activate the Microsoft Office Windows product via online or by telephone, I ended up UNINSTALLING the software from my computer.

I wanted a money program to track the transactions. But since the Excel spreadsheet has been rendered to the functionality of `Read Only`, I was left to find a work around to this inconvenience: Thanks a lot William (Bill) Gates! G-d dammit!

After digging around one drawer full of software, I found an old Quicken 2006 program. I wanted to use the Money 2002 program but that didn’t have a system requirement for XP.

Then, I had to register online for the free 2009 Quicken Update but the Bankster of America account didn’t log in properly. I remembered using Yodlee.com LONG AGO and registered online with this site again but the Chase Credit Cards didn’t log in properly either.

Now, I’m trying OpenOffice.org for FREE! I’ve registered online and am currently participating for improvements.

In the attempt to update my spreadsheet, I went online to log into my accounts. Here are the messages I received from certain sites:
