Default Windows Validation Problems

Ok since Microsoft have released the update which makes your computer give a message on stat-up saying "You may be a victim of software conterfeiting" I'm slightly worried. I do have a downloaded copy of XP, but I've heard that after some time your copy of Windows gets disabled untill you resolve the issue. What I plan to do is for the mean-time try to fix this problem and to then buy a Windows copy or a key for my birthday.

Here's mroe information on it:

Does anyone know anything about this? Any way i can fix the problem?

Hey mikepjbell!

Sorry but we don't support illegal software, please take a look at the PCHF Rules in my signature.

I appreciate that you want to get legit software, but we can't help you at this point.

Bluefish
