[OOG][HELP]Birthday error? Yeah so I remember some steps on how to solve the birthday error. I need a quick answer because I haven't been able to unlock a server and I can't get into the chat page or the key entry page because of this birthday error. Please help!

There's a small set of people using Live ID who created their accounts as minors and are now older than 18. There's been all sorts of problems with these accounts, like not being able to use Windows Messenger on Xbox Live and getting the "birthday error" in this ARG. The best bet for people with this problem is to create a new Windows Live account. That's the only way it'll recognize the user as being 18+. Just make sure all the date of birth and address information is correct.

I'm confused. I've read all about this birthday error and I even made a new windows live id, but I don't know for sure if it works or not. I have saved both id's with birth dates that are over 18 and when I try to login to the server 4 page it still asks for a birth date. I read that the error doesn't happen on IE7 but since I don't have IE7 I am using firefox. Is there anything I need to do with my browser to help me get over this? I've been signing in and out of windows messenger, the windows live id page, and just about any combination of windows, live, and id for the past 30 minutes and I still cant figure it out.
I'm about 30 minutes from passing out and I have a huge headache but I don't want to leave my computer because I really want to see what happens. I'm probably missing something extremely obvious but I would appreciate any help I can get.
Thanks in advance,

Previous thread on this topic
This discusses this issue many have been having and some possible solutions.
one thing to note this does not make it so you don't have to type in your birthdate on the main Halo3.com page or any of the server country selection pages. These possible solutions are for when asked to sign into your passport or live id account.

Thanks. Thats what I was working off earlier. I was second guessing whether it worked on the halo 3 page. I did find the key entry page and I am no waiting for the keys. I forgot to edit my post. Thanks again.

Yeah it's hard to tell if it works right. i try this
http://unlock.msgamestudios.com/Tr89ex/Default.aspx?wa=wsignin1.0
link and sign in with one live account -birthay error. sign in with other live account- brings me to the captcha page. if you see that page then i think your good.

Thats what I found. After reseting my live id page a couple times, I got it to work.
