    The beta is only available to users in the US, Israel, and Brazil.

    I just checked their site, and there aren't any more downloads available anyway:

    I really hope you're not using pirated security software.

    I don't need to point out how incredibly silly that would be.

    It can still be downloaded directly from the Microsoft website, but they no longer have links to it on their own website, if you get what I mean! Here is just one such place.

    Only bested by downloading a pirate OS with pwnedness already built in. :)

    Edited to add in a joke I just though up:

    What do you call a pirate operating system?

    Portholes :D

    (I didn't say it was a good joke).
