Is your Windows XP genuine, or is it a fake copy, or one that you downloaded? (Did you pay for it is what I am asking)

Hi,
It seems you had a Pirated Copy of windows XP installed on your machine. When you update your Operating System from Microsoft Website, it validates your OS copy. If it is found Pirated you will this message.
If you had installed an original copy of Windows XP, please call Microsoft immediatly and let them know about it.
If it was a pirated version then you need to reinstall the Operating System.

If it was a pirated version then you need to reinstall the Operating System.

Let me correct this.

If it was a pirated version then you need to PAY FOR IT.
