Now that was a freebee you had to earn. My poor thumb is wore out.

Thanks for the answers SoulAssassin. If it wasn't for you, it wouldn't have been worth it. Clicking and thinking at the same time is too much trouble.

Yo! Most of us have received that message. Just the the "back" button on your browser and resubmit the final page of the application. I had to do it about 20 times before I received a successful completion message.

Now, if Microsoft had been using Unix boxes for this promotion, their system wouldn't be so overwhelmed. :Q

Slow & Painful! "I bet it's a .net (2003) server - haha!)

If you are having problems getting to the first page, hold down the SHIFT-KEY when you hit REFRESH - Skips using IE cache and forces request to server - GREAT FOR PROXY SERVERS!"

Got through after just about 20 refreshes. Lets hope the mouse comes through

I concur - thanks murphy55d and SoulAssassin.

Try this alternate link:
http://www2.entirenet.net/microsoft/mobilityquiz/Default.aspx

I kept trying different things at the original link (i.e. ending my URL w/ "quiz.aspx" and "Default2.aspx") and hitting the BACK button. At one point, when I hit the BACK button, it took me to the aformentioned URL and allowed me to proceed w/ the quiz. Hopefully my mouse is on it's way! Thanks murphy55d!
