IF you mean the "Genuine Microsoft Software" notification that keeps popping up you can try this:

Following three simple steps now you can get rid of the pesky and sometimes buggy Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA) notifications:
1. Reboot Windows in safe mode (hold the f8 key while booting and you will get the option to boot in safe mode) and then:

2. Open Registry Editor (regedit.exe) and search for wgalogon folder and delete it. You should backup up the registry beforehand, in case somethiong goes wrong.

3. In your windows directory search for files wga* and delete them.


You are done!

Now reboot back normally and continue your work. Windows Genuine Advantage will not bother you anymore.

IMPORTANT: This involves editing the Windows Registry. Make a registry backup by selecting "Export" from the "File" drop down menu in "RegEdit". Selecting a name to save the file under. Make sure "My Computer" highlighted in software so the entire Registry is backed up.

Never make changes to the registry without making a backup copy of it first.

If your system misbehaves run "RegEdit" and select "Import" from the "File" menu. Navigate to where you stored the backup of the registry on your hard disk and restore the previous version before you made the changes.
