Hello David,
Thank you for visiting the Office Genuine Advantage (OGA) program forum. Your issue appears to be outside the scope of the OGA program forum. In an attempt to assist I would like to provide the following:
Open My Computer located on your desktop.
Go to: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Office\Data\
NOTE: The application data file may be hidden. Use the Tools drop down menu do the following: Folder Options->View->Hidden Files and Folders->Show Hidden Files and Folders to show the folder. Please re-hide the files once you have completed all the steps.
Right click data.dat file, then click Delete.
The data.dat file is for Office, Not OGA.
Once the file has been deleted, open an Office application such as MS Word and activate it.
If product activation was successful try the Office Validation located here:

Hi David,
I myself & a couple of other people have had the same problem with office 2002 otherwise known as office xp. Please try the following.
Click on start/search/all files & folders. Then copy & past the following into, All or part of the file name:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Office\Data\.
Two things should show up,DATA.BAK & data. delete data. & once you have done that open MS word & reactivate office. After that validate office again. The starfish will disappear after you restart your pc.
This fix came from some else who had the same problem & not microsoft themselves.
Hope this fixes your problem.
Cheers
