On September 1, 2010, we announced an amendment of our agreement with Microsoft Corporation (“Microsoft”) to extend the term of the Microsoft Operations Digital Distribution Agreement through October 31, 2013. On August 30, 2010, we entered into the Microsoft Store USA statement of work with Microsoft whereby we will build, host and manage Microsoft® Store, an e-commerce store that supports the sale and fulfillment of Microsoft and third party software as well as consumer electronics products to customers in the United...
Microsoft has hosted the files at DigitalRiver for years and has not taken them down or made efforts to prevent hotlinking. The reality is you need a valid license for Windows Genuine Advantage. Other sites often refer to the Digital River files, and I do not think this is a problem. @nmsuk and @Josephur discussed this in a conference call last night by happenstance. They will likely be placed in the Resources area soon.
If you go to digital rivers site...you'll see that those ISO links are no longer available. Holy crap...now I can't even find Digital River's site.
Yeah...I found that site as well, but that's not the actual digital river website. There are a few other forums with active links to the actual ISO file to download that I found as well. I still can't find anything for Digital River...anywehre. I think it's been taken down.

On March 2, 2011, Digital River began providing e-commerce hosting and payment processing services in connection with Microsoft Store. In addition to Microsoft Store, Digital River maintains its role as a reseller of Microsoft products via Digital River’s existing online stores. Currently, we are providing commerce services, ranging from transaction and payment processing, to e-marketing, digital downloads and fraud prevention in support of some of the popular Microsoft software titles, including Microsoft© Office. The global arrangement incorporates digital fulfillment across multiple geographies, including North America, Asia, Europe, Latin America and Australia.

DigitalRiverContent.net from which you can download many microsoft products is owned and operated by Digital River Inc.

They apparently do not now have (if they've ever had), a public facing website that lists their entire content catalog for all of their e-commerce customers but if you happen to know the specific URL like ( Link Removed ) which you would likely obtain after purchasing said product via an email then you can obtain the necessary installation files for your purchased product by their facility. However these links are all but worthless without the appropriate Product Key which would have also likely have been sent to you via the same or a following email, as they are just a means / method of constructing installation media and the media alone without a product key is worthless.
Digital river haven't gone anywhere, they're just the digital distribution provider for Microsoft. If you buy the download from the MS store that's who supplies the download.

I suspect that, that lag is built in to the new XenForo forum software, perhaps to discourage abuse by someone going nuts with the like system, which is part of the underpinnings for the default award / trophy system in this new software.Just to inform you that I had run into a minor glitch.
I posted a simple "Thank you" reply to Trouble, clicked Post Reply.
Then I came to your post and wanted to do the same... a simple "Thank you" reply.
I got this error message.....

So I had to wait a bit before I could click the Post Reply button.
I don't know where is the glitch. Your end or mine. Just to let you know. That's all.
