This may seem silly, but I have been trying to download the latest versions of some vmware products from their site. I log in to their site and it asks me to "complete registration" I comply and the it says "Fix fields marked in red" there are none and all information is correct.

I've tried different browsers, behind a firewall and not behind a firewall and seperate ISPs all together.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

its giving me issues too. When I go to log into my existing account it is prompting me to fill out X amount of information... which it shouldn't considering I already have an account.

A day later I a can actually get in.

Geez vmware, way to screw up your site right when vulnerabilities are published.

no problem for checking :), it only took a minute. Really any big site, this stuff happens... including TR :), just wait it out, they normally only take a couple hours or a day to fix the issue... once they are aware of it.

lol, no website is perfect... It doesn't surprise me when big vendors sites go glitchey like that, I can't even imagine how many times a minute the get hit with malicious intent.

I was annoyed because I have a lot of vmware products on my network.

I had to sit on my hands with these vulnerabilities for a day (which is a long time in my opinion).

I'd expect this kind of shenanigans from Apple, but vmware?

I originally posted to verify that it was indeed a problem with vmware's site.
