This is due to the Product Key that has been entered is fake or invalid. The operting system will not tell you if it is a real key until the activation is attempted. I would suggest gaining a valid geniune copy of Microsoft Windows XP to remove the counterfit software icon.
i hope this will help you with you problem and i advise that you contact them asap cuz this is a counterfit issue that really need to be reported to fix your software
If this is the message you were getting then the license key on microsofts systems when it did a verification check was listed as counterfit.
Ive been able to call microsoft and tell them that this was MY KEY and it is what came with the machine and they were able to help resolve it.
If someone did reinstall XP then double check with that person on which key they used and the possibility exists you might have to buy another license.
The software came with windows ? Are you sure it's Office Pro ? Or Student Edition ? If so, the license is invalid: Buy a new one or uninstall it. (Use a crack, bypass the license check. Not recommended)
You have a Microsoft product on your computer that has an improperly activated or blacklisted key. Did you have the machine worked on recently? Did you buy the machine used? Did you buy the Microsoft product new from a store? If you bought a retail copy of a Microsoft product (say Windows or Office) installed it and got this message after activating it, TAKE IT BACK TO THE STORE YOU BOUGHT IT FROM. Reputable stores will exchange it for another (you wont get your money back since you opened it already). If you had work done to your computer before this happened, contact the person who did the work for a solution. If you bought the machine used and the product was already on it, chances are its improperly activated. Do resolve this soon; the machine will get slower and slower, and you can't download and install service packs and updates from Microsoft's website.
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.
