Earle, You likely may have been hoodwinked; go ahead and cancel the credit card order ASAP. You purchased the software from a place other than the entity that produces and makes it avaiilable, OpenOffice.org. Do it quickly; once they charge your credit card, it will take one more full billing cycle before the refund can show up on your credit card statement.
At OpenOffice.org, the suite is avalable to download for free. A CD can be purchased and mailed to you from openoffice, but there is no KEY assocated with it. You download it, install it, use it - anywhere you want on as many machines as you want. Or you purchase the CD for a nomnal fee to cover the cost of the CD and shipping, and then you install it and use it as above. Your menton of the "key" indicates you bought it elsewhere. There is no "key" needed. You don't even need to register your software although they like it if you do so they can tell how many people are using it and approximately where. You can even join the product to help further its goals if you wish. Go to www.openoffice.org for full details. But kill that credit card purchase quickly and get it from openoffice.org; then you know you'll have safe, reliable, no-ads, clean software. I will not mess with challenge-response systems, so I hope you spot this in your waitlist in time to save some money from the bottom feeder (IMO) that sold it to you.
