I logged in with my live account (as prompted), waited for 7 or 8 minutes and could download the iso image

I was also able to use this link, again with about a 6 - 8 minute wait - be patient! 😉

I realized that the Account I was using to download was not a member of the Administrators Group.

Usually that is not a problem but in this case it did not prompt me to install the 3rd party ActiveX Control.

I was surprised that the ActiveX Control is not a Microsoft Control?

Is this ActiveX Control Safe?
