    Hello Cokes1

    The Microsoft Office Professional Edition 2003 is Non-Genuine.  It was installed using a Blocked Volume Licensce Key (VLK). VLK software is not to be sold to consumers, but are designed for large organizations that need 10s 100s or 1000s of Office installs.  In this case the VLK is the one Microsoft licened to itself for use by it's own employees.  The Key leaked to the internet some time ago and Microsoft has since blocked it from further use.

      The reason you hadn't see the Non-Genuine message sooner is that Office doesn't have any anti-piracy systems other then Activation and this pirated Product Key is a Volume License Key that doesn't require Activation.  The only way for you to have found out that the Office was Non-Genuine would have been if you had gone to http://Microsoft.com/genuine and click the 'Validate Office", gone to the Office Download site and attempted to download any validation protected content or by installing the Office Notifier. It turns out that Microsoft recently released the Office Notifier thru Windows Update and it is what is notifying you that the Office is Non-Genuine

      Now, I am Not accusing you of piracy. There are a number of reason why your Office would be using a Pirated key. The three most common are:

    1) You may have bought the software from a unscrupulous seller who sold you pirated software.
     
     In which case I recommend, if possible, contacting that seller and demand the Genuine Microsoft software, that you paid for or at least a refund. I also recommend submitting a Piracy Report at http://microsoft.com/piracy

    or

    2) You had your computer worked on (by a repair person, a friend or that smart kid down the street) and in the course of fixing the PC, they had to reinstall Office.  Instead of contacting you to get the proper Product Key, (maybe due to not knowing it was wrong or due to laziness) they downloaded it from the internet.
     
     In this case, you probably have a Genuine copy (and Product Key) of Office, you just need to uninstall the Non-genuine one and reinstall the software using the proper (Genuine) Product Key

    or

    3) A repair person, a friend or that smart kid down the street may have thought they were doing you a Favor by installing a copy of Office on your computer, "for Free".  But in fact he/she installed a Pirated Copy.  It's all togeather possible they didn't know they were doing anything wrong and thought they were just being nice.
     
     In this case, the best way to resolve the issue would be to uninstall the software and if you still want to use Office, buy it from a trusted retailer or online store.


    Thank you,

    You may have bought your machine from Dell - but you didn't get the current version of Office from them!
    You are using a Key for Office 2003 Professional that once belonged to MS itself - until it was leaked to the internet and they blocked it.
    If you have a legitimate copy of Office, then use that after uninstalling the current version.
    If this is the only version you have, then whoever you bought it from is guilty of piracy - and probably guilty of a number of other offences as well. You need to check back and see who you bought it from, and try and claim a refund. You can also use the links on the Notification to get to MS's site where you can purchase a Get Genuine Kit - or buy a legal version of Office from a reputable store.

    thanks darin. 

    the 3 causes you list above dont apply as:

    1.  i bought the notebook/software at the same time via a large Australian telecommunication company (called Telstra) so am confidant that it was sold to me 'legally'

    2 & 3.  Fortunatley for me, I have never had to have my notebook repaired - either professionally or by a friend. No one else has access to my notebook.

    So it is perplexing.  I still have the Dell Operating System DVD for Windows Vista, so perhaps I should uninstall the software and then reinstal using the DVD? Again the DVD was provided with the 'package' by Telstra, so it would be legal. 

    thank you. Appreciate your time

    From what I can see, Telstra do not themselves sell either computers or software - did you buy them from someone on the 'Trading Post'?
    If so, then it's highly likely that you were sold counterfeits, as it seems to operate on a similar business model to eBay - i.e. the vendors are responsible for everything, and Telstra just rake in the commissions  for doing very little, and almost certainly don't pre-check either the vendors or the items on sale.

    What does the invoice say about the Office software provided? - usually, it will only be a trial version, and you have to purchase an extra Office disk/license as well.

    invoice states, 'Microsoft(R) Works 8.5 (Does not include Microsoft(R) Office 2003/2007 Software'.  I have been corresponding with Dell via email, but they have recommended i speak directly (via phone) to a tech support specialist as they are best to advise me on these matters.  I am yet to do so - difficult when i work during the day and so dont have access to my notebook.

    There's the be-all and end-all of it then - you should have a license for Works, but not for Office, unless you purchased Office separately, either from Dell, or from a third party.
    The Works License is always in the packaging AFAIK - certainly it was, in a Dell I installed as part of a Christmas present back in 2005.
    Works includes no true Office products - although Works Suite (which appears not to be involved here) contains Office Word (XP version, IIRC, for Works suite 8 and higher).
     
    How you came by a counterfeit Office Pro 2003 install is a whole different question - and I suspect that Dell will take the view that it's not their problem, since they didn't supply it (and I would agree with them on that).
