Hi Doug,
Can you try this for me?
1) Go to: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Office\Data\
2) Delete the data.dat file.
3) This data.dat file is for Office (not OGA).
4) Once the file has been deleted, open an Office application such as MS Word and ACTIVATE it.
5) After product activation is successful, let’s try revalidating (this is the OGA part; Office Genuine Advantage): http://www.microsoft.com/genuine/office/Validate.aspx?displaylang=enDid this work?
Thanks,

I saw your MVP status and was wondering if you would be willing to do us a favor? Would you be able to open an SR with PSS about this issue? I'd like to be able to have someone contact you offline. If you could open the SR and post the SR# back here in a reply, we'll get someone to contact you directly.

DougKlippert,
I understand the inconvenience you are currently experiencing surrounding Office activation. In turn I would like to provide the following steps to try and resolve the issue. Please follow the steps to attempt resolving this issue.
WINDOWS VISTA:
1) Click the START button.
2) Click ALL PROGRAMS.
3) Look at the list of your installed programs and find INTERNET EXPLORER.
4) Point the mouse cursor over top of INTERNET EXPLORER until it is highlighted and click the RIGHT-MOUSE button and choose “RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR” from the menu.
5) You will be prompted by a Windows Vista dialog box, and I want you to choose “ALLOW”. This will allow IE to start with administrator privileges.
6) In the new Internet Explorer session, manually type or copy this URL: http://www.microsoft.com/genuine (again, make sure it's the new instance of IE that opened as “Administrator”.
7) Once the /genuine web site loads in the new IE browser. Click the “VALIDATE OFFICE” button.What happened? Are the results different? Please re-post here should you need further assistance.
Thank you,
