Cannot download free trial of MS Office 2007 Professional

[supriyamishra]

I am not able to download the trial version of MS Office 2007 Professional
from the Microsoft website. After I enter all the details, I get an error
page saying my request could not be processed. I am trying to download the
trial on my new desktop which has Vista Home Basic installed and the download
is not being blocked by a firewall or Antivirus. How can I download the trial
version?

MS has quite recently made a public beta of Office 2010 available for download.
That typically triggers a huge load on their servers, which might be causing the
problem you're seeing.

You might want to try again later or at different times during the day.
