How to get the game to work on a computer with no internet access

[trigger7108]

Hi
  I'm sure i read somewhere that you could get an unlock code sent via email if you did not have internet connection on a particular machine. the problem is I live away from home during the week and have no internet access with my older computer in the accommodation(could get it but I'm not paying twice for the internet) and i remember when i got the disc based game of mount and blade it said something about being able to activate it with something sent by taleworlds to get the game to go beyond lvl 7 as i don't get that much time at home to play the computer 5 nights sat at work could get me to overtake my son who would kick my arse if i ever met him on a battlefield. How to i get in touch with taleworld to get the code/program/whatever they do

cheers

Manual Activation Process

 Mount & Blade allows for manual activation for use on systems which cannot connect to the internet. The process is as follows:

1. Install Mount & Blade on the PC you wish to activate it on
2. Run the activation, and choose "Manual Activation"
3. You will see a screen with a Hardware Hash number and an empty box for the Activation Code
4. Write down the Hardware Hash (you might want to write down your serial key on the same bit of paper)
5. On a PC which has internet access, go to http://www.taleworlds.com/act/. (if that gives you problems, try http://www.taleworlds.net/act/
6. On the activation page, enter your serial and hardware hash. Click OK
7. You will be given a long (16 or so digit) activation code. Write this down.
8. Return to the PC you wish to activate M&B on. Run activation and again choose "manual activation"
9. Enter the activation code you obtained in step 7 into the box and hit ok
10. You should be returned to the M&B splash screen, with "Mount & Blade is running in full mode" displayed to the left

I got the hardware hash and my serial number ready to activate it but when i tried to go to the taleworld.com/act i get a page not found error, so tried to go via the store but i am only given the choice to buy mount and blade warband. the computers at work have so many restrictions on them and are still using internet explorer 6 (that's the RAF for you). anyway any other help would be most welcome.

cheers Trigger
