Windows 7 Professional randomly de-activated and gave "Build 7600" notice

Question
-
I just tried others' suggestions involving re-entering the purchased key and unfortunately I received a message that my key was blocked by Microsoft. I did purchase the key from the same place my organization purchased a large quantity of them from last year. I'm just wondering if I got hosed on this or what may have happened. This isn't the first time I've seen this happen as I had a friend of mine have the same thing happen to him a few months ago. He too purchased his key legitimately as well.
How do I go about learning whether my keys were blocked by Microsoft before this happens to other systems of mine in the future, and what exactly does "blocked" mean. Also, how does a key work for a year+ and then randomly (without warning) display the "Build 7600" message.
Any help or suggestions are appreciated. Below is my diagnostic tool report.

Your Product ID line shows that you are using an MSDN product key. Since you are not the subscriber who was issued this product key, it is invalid for your use.
Windows Product ID: 00371-221-2179925-86178
The 221 is the MSDN indicator. Your organization may have also purchased counterfeit product.
If this copy of Windows was purchased in a retail box the entire box and its contents is a counterfeit product. Many counterfeit copies are being sold on eBay and the Amazon Marketplace as well as various websites around the world. The product key is not a genuine retail PK. It is a genuine MSDN product key and so will activate and pass as genuine until it is blocked by Microsoft as an MSDN key in use by a nonsubscriber. It takes a while for MS to detect and complete processing of abused keys.
Pursue a refund for an item not as described immediately. Do not accept a replacement product key from the seller. It will be from the same source.

Buy a copy of Windows from a rock solid seller like the Microsoft Store or Amazon Corp (not an affiliate).

Thank you for your information. This is quite interresting and definitely explains a few brow-raising moments I've had in the past. I will look into the issue at my organization to verify if they too have been a victim of counterfeit software.Saturday, April 16, 2011 4:15 PM
