Solve : Windows Genuine Advantage?

1.	Solve : Windows Genuine Advantage?
Answer» Hi there, I am helping my friend SORT her computer out after a SERIOUS virus attack. It was that bad that we have had to wipe the HDD completely. She SAYS she has a Windows XP cd (which is legit by the sound of it) - I don't know 100% as it is over msn messenger that we are communicating (she lives miles away). We installed the OS, but it is now saying it isn't genuine. They never owned the computer from new and the OS disc was given with the PC. I'm GUESSING that's an OEM copy. Why are we getting that message and can we do anything about it?CALL the #800 MS number and they will have you all fixed up...
