    OK, all of a sudden my Windows XP system is saying my copy of Office is not genuine, after nearly 4 years of using it with no problems. Further, all my MS software came installed when I bought my computer NEW from Lenovo. The original install disks are some where, I have moved twice since I got this computer, but why should I have to go find them? And what is going to happen, is my office software going to stop working? Is their an 800 number I can call and complain to? So what the heck?

    Is this just MS trying to force me to upgrade (using office 2003)?
