I recently downloaded Open Office on my new laptop. Now, it is asking for a ''product key." I was told that I had 15 (now, 13) more times to use it.
This doesn't sound right for free software. Does anyone know what is going on?

Re: product key for open office?
That sounds like you have been hit by a scam. You should download from www.OpenOffice.org. There will be no product key or limited use. If you paid money for your previous download, you might want to try to stop payment.

Which URL you downloaded that software??I recently downloaded Open Office on my new laptop.
The exact name of the freeware, opensource office suite is "OpenOffice", not "Open Office"

As far as I know, the name is still "OpenOffice.org", not "OpenOffice" or "Open Office".Zizi64 wrote:Which URL you downloaded that software??I recently downloaded Open Office on my new laptop.

Out of interest what does it say when you go to Help, About on the program that is asking for the product key?
