    Sure thing bud...

    First, create a login here: http://houseparty.com/login

    Takes like 3 minutes, and there's no spam or anything, I believe you need the same login & email for the Kaspersky deal.

    Second, send me in a PM here, the email you registered with, as well as your first name, and I'll send you the invite. :cool:


    This goes for all you other people who are interested :)

    are you still physically located in Australia? It could be your IP address that's giving it away, and maybe your IP needs to be in the U.S?

    or maybe the offer/link/url is only valid after Windows 7 has launch

    The "Zune Pass Free for 14 days" offer isn't actually a Windows 7 tie-in at all - they've had the free 14 day trial for months now, perhaps more than a year. I tried it myself on XP in May.

    But cool pics. A bit busy of a tote bag IMO, but kinda neat nevertheless.

    There is a bunch of them selling on ebay. They don't appreciate what they got. If I had gotten one you would have had to pried it out of my fingers of my dead body to get it. :rolleyes:

    Hi MegaMan, thanks for your help. I tried to do as you told, but I got this message:
    "paf, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

    1.Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
    2.If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation."

    Do you have any other suggestion? Do you think you can help me? If you don't, thanks anyway.

    You need at least 15 posts on NBR and then 1 Server refresh - happens every 24 hours.
    Just be a valuable asset to NBR.

    Currently you have 2 posts - both in his thread.

    I've actually received 6 messages TODAY (Oct 23rd) to invite from various members to invite you to my House Party (Windows 7 Launch Party) to the 22nd.

    Do you realize that I can not invite people to a party has already passed? Don't want to be the bad guy here but you had from Oct 7th when I started this thread to PM me asking for an invite.

    It's too late now, stop PMing me.
