Victims of software counterfing - Microsoft Windows XP Professional for PC

i think the operating system has been updated by u(knowingly or unknowingly) and the operating system is not original(pirated/cracked).
Buy an original one or use an oem version if u have got with ur machine.
The best method will be to format and reinstall the operating system and not update it.

Buy or install a NON illegal version of Microsoft Windows XP Pro or...


These notifications start coming back again after some time and do not feel good. Though I never encourage piracy but here is how you can remove this problem:
1. Before doing anything serious try restoring your system. If the problem is occurring after the Windows Update then System Restore will surely help.
2. But if it does not then do try this, launch Windows Task Manager.
3. Locate the process "wgatray.exe" and end it.
4. Log in into the Safe Mode and delete the file WgaTray.exe from c:\Windows\System32
5. Also delete the WgaTray.exe from c:\Windows\System32\dllcache
6. Type regedit in Run to open Registry Editor, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Notify key.
7. Delete the folder WgaLogon and all of its contents.
8. Restart the PC normally.

you have to uninstall windows and office for your convenience and to remove that piracy warning. after reinstalling your software, DO NOT register your copy of windows nor your office online for the serial key may be blocked or blacklisted.

counterfeit: made to look like the original of something, usually for dishonest or illegal purposes.
If you're being victim of software conterfeit, that means that your software is illegal.
This error is very common due to Windos Genuine Advantage (WGA).
You just need a WGA remover to fix it.
You can download one from here

your only options are to get a genuine holograme-stickered version of windows which is expensive but guaranteed to peform in a relative sense,or why not try a "Linux" distro which doesnt have licence fees and is invariably free or given away with a Linux magazine

Was you copy a TRIAL copy the was install in your computer at the time of purchase? And as far as the desktop wallpaper, was it a picture that you worked with from something like Pulisher in the Office Pro Suite...I am thinking if the office program is stopped (end of the trial period) that other things may also stop working that were made using the programs contained therein. AH! but we have one for you. Download and Install OpenOffice, it is a total suite of programs that look like, work like, and are totally conpatible with MS Office. For FREE...I have used this program and it is totally wonderful, and did I mention for free. If you can use that office you can use OpenOffice, it is not a trial, it will not stop working for you...anyway try it...over 50,000,000 copies in use in the US with 139,000,000 hits on their site to date...here is the link: http://download.openoffice.org/
click on the green arrow...
please leave rating....thank you

This kind of error generally occurs due to automatic updates on or if you download any ie 7 or windows media players 11. If this the situation than kindly download crack for the same.

Contact microsoft customer service to verify that you are the owner of an original key.

So you have installed windoes and input your COA sticker from Microsoft? If this is true then you can call them to get it validated. The number I found for you is (888) 352-7140. Resolved.

if this is a newly purchase system, then you have to ask the seller. i you had this system before and just reinstalled a copy of windows... then you can call the Microsoft support and they can give you a fix. otherwise you need to buy a new copy of windows and reinstall the operating system.
