hi
i am a new member here.
i have a small problem. i had recently obtained, what i thought to be an unused xp key from a friend. So in order to change my key i downloaded and installed a software from microsoft from microsoft that helps me change my key. when i input the key i found that it was a used key and now the damn program keeps asking me to change my key. when i traced the program in task manager to the process i found it to be msoobe.exe.
Can someone please help me by telling me how to get rid of the damn popup from my taskbar.

thanks

It is windows Key Validation program it can't be taken out from the system.
You would need to get working windows product key, you might need to run to stores to get a new winxp box.

Just Activate your copy it will fix your errors.
