Is there some small print that says 'US only'? I note you're in Canada, so maybe they class you as Johnny Foreigner and don't want you getting your hands on their software.

I had the same exact problem and i'm in the US. Cant remember what I did to finaly get it to except my info. But is was something soooo stupid. Damn.... I'm, trying hard to remember what I did to fix it!! Mabye check a bill statment from your credit card and tripple-check the address again and make sure it's exactly what's in your credit card agency's database. Keep trying! Mine finaly went through!! BTW, I paid the extra $10.00 to have the CD shipped to me! Do I still have the option to d/l it incase the CD's get sent late or something?? Anybody?
