Office 2003. Windows XP. For several weeks I have had a persistent desktop pop-up warning that my Word 2003 is not genuine. As it has been genuine for the past 4 years, I have ignored the warning. Now my tool bar has disappeared its place taken by "This copy of Office is not genuine etc" I follow the directions on-line but aware of the possibility of a hoax I decline to tackle the validation which I am assured is in order.
Please restore my tool bar after rechecking that as I know - my Office Word 2003 is genuine.
