Hello I am trying to activate my Vista Ultimate and It gets this 0x80072f8f
error, I was wondering how can I fix this. I am told this is due to Windows
Defender problem, please help

Make sure that the time and date including Internet Zone are correct on your computer.
You may have to reboot after synchronizing your computer's time etc.
