Hi guys so I've recently built a new PC and is running on trial version of windows. I just bought a Windows 10 Pro Product key from Lazada which is like the Ebay in my country for only $1.5. I've bought a Windows 10 Pro Product key for my main PC (the one I built 2 years ago) from Ebay for around $6 and it's working normally but now I bought a product key from Lazada because my Paypal is dead and can't create a new one. So here's the main thing. Correct me if I'm wrong, Ebay sells OEM keys right? which is somehow safe. The seller from Lazada which I bought a new Key from said that the one they are selling(which is what I bought) is not OEM and never explained any further. In the description it says some more weird stuff "100% working 100% Tested" I'm pretty sure they shouldn't test product keys right?? but the ratings is 4.8/5 with 177 5 stars. 7 4 stars and 11 1 star( 4 people complaining the seller taking too long to send the code). Assuming that what I just bought is not an OEM product then what is it? If it's cracked then meh as long as it runs normally fine by me only costed $1.6 anyways. Also is there a way to check if other people are using my product key? I would like to see if the key the seller sent me is being used by other people too.

My schol recently upgrade the Computer Lab and we got new periphirals what do you think about our mouspads

I have recently discovered multiple viruses on my computer. One file kept asking for permission to access my computer. Named MRT.exe with the filename MRT-KB890830.exe it stated it was from Microsoft and was a virus scanner and web searches prove that but the filename there (MRT-KB890830.exe) doesn't match that of google searches. Also, Microsoft wouldn't ask permission to access my device. Should I delete it? I have a bad feeling about it but in case it was something good I didn't want to screw it up. (it is next to files; MRT and MRT.exe in the sys32 folder) Please help!

Had my legit Win7 come up on a ban list, now I basically need to purchase another key... Not sure how I feel because I only paid $15 US, but looking at both sides of the argument, seems like Microsoft is just upset that people who bought large packs of keys are re-selling them. Hopefully someone who knows more about this can help me understand this a little better? Did I purchase something that was counterfeit or is Microsoft gettin BanHappy? I will post a reply I got on the Microsoft community site and another from the site I got my Key: Stated on g_helen's booth on Bonanza https://www.bonanza.com/listings/Windows-10-Pro-64-32-bit-Professional-Genuine-License-key-Download-link/503205720?goog_pla=1&gpid=137245887901&keyword=&goog_pla=1&pos=1o3&ad_type=pla&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIweuiqYjK1wIVEtRkCh1NdwLQEAQYAyABEgKjt_D_BwE Note: Genuine licenses are obtained legally through uninstalling from PCs which no longer require them and it is legal to sell used licenses under EU law. Microsoft Policy States: "Large brand-name computer manufacturers, such as Dell and Compaq, often include OEM software on non-holographic “recovery” or “reinstallation” discs that show the manufacturer’s brand name. These software packages are typically marked with a phrase that states, for instance, “For Distribution with a new Dell PC only.” Recovery or reinstallation software is licensed only for distribution with new computers and can be redistributed only with the computer for which it was initially distributed. Distributing such software with individual PC hardware components (e.g. hard drive; RAM) does not comply with Microsoft’s OEM distribution requirements." - Therefore, this sale includes the original computer from which the COA was taken off. OEM Software: Microsoft's Distribution Agreement for System Builders states that the system builder software packs are not intended for distribution to end users unless the end users are acting as system builders by assembling their own PCs.

Response from Andre Da Costa on MS community site: Thats because you are using a blocked MSDN key. Lately there have been several reports of instances of blocked MSDN keys packaged with legitimate looking media. I can't stress enough to save your packaging, media and reciepts, if you purchase software such as this seek recourse with the store you purchased it from and report it to www.microsoft.com/piracy If you have purchased a key, with or without DVD's or packaging from EBAY or any other person or vendor and believe it may be an MSDN key because your key has been blocked you can check a few things yourself, if you received your key with the physical product go to www.microsoft.com/howtotelland verify your product however some counterfeit software is so convincing you may not be able to spot it as such. To check your PID press the win key and pause at the same time, or open system properties through the control panel, scroll down to activation section and look at the PID It will look something like this 12345-067-1234567-54321, the portion you are interested in is the three digit section, if it matches or is within one or two digits of the examples below you probably have an MSDN key. 065, 066, 067, 068, 069, 070 for Ultimate, 220, 221, 222 area for Professional and the 230, 231, 221, 232 area for Premium, there are probably others but they should be close to those posted About MSDN or TechNet Product Keys They are genuine Microsoft product keys, they are actually retail licenses, but it is intended for a particular product channel either the Microsoft Software Developer Network (MSDN) or TechNet for IT Professionals who pay a subscription fee. The main purpose is for evaluation purposes. The great thing about them, unlike trial Microsoft software, MSDN or TechNet keys don't expire. Because the agreement under which the subscription is provided is a single license, none of the software should be distributed outside of it. Even though its $50,000 worth of licenses, it is for one person only to use and no one else. Unfortunately, regardless of the licensing terms, persons still abuse the program, either giveaway product keys or resell it on auction sites. Microsoft licenses it in good faith that customers won't do so, but I guess human nature wins out. In your case, what probably happened is, you bought an MSDN licensed key, which carries up to 10 activations unlike full packaged retail licenses which only carry 1 activation. The person who sold it to you probably sold it to 10 other persons. Somewhere along the way, one of those persons might have installed it on a second system, activated it, because it went past 10 activation threshold, Microsoft detected it that it was being abused and blocked the key from further use.

The Nosulus Rift was thought to be a joke, turned out to be a real product, and some got their first hands on experience as this year's Gamescom 2016. Developed by Ubisoft, the Nosulus Rift is a wearable device just like a VR headset, instead you wear it on your nose, and it emits a scent from its built in cartridge based on the game your playing. Of all the scents out there in the world. At the demo, Ubisoft wanted to show off this amazing product, with a game called South Park: The Fractured But Whole, where the few chosen ones, finally got to know what a virtual fart smells like. http://nosulusrift.ubisoft.com/?lang=en-US http://www.tomshardware.com/news/nosulus-rift-gamesom-south-park,32552.html http://www.polygon.com/2016/8/19/12550744/south-park-fractured-but-whole-nosulus-rift http://www.ign.com/articles/2016/08/23/heres-what-south-parks-fractured-but-whole-smells-like
