    i would guess it's a trojan, wouldn't be suprised if you can't even run anti virus and it might even block out instal files

    Try spy bot aswell as antivirus if you can

    dont exactly understand what you are saying here, does it appear as a error message if it is , its probably just a bit of a cheeky trojan, run antivrus/spybot like the others say.

    It's either a virus, or you've got a dodgy copy of office/windows which is moaning because the product activation has failed..

    Calm down ("it's only a commercial!") The original post might be very precise, in which case the error message itself is clearly coming from a trojan/virus/malware so people are giving excellent advice.
