Greetings --
Actually, if you had read that site's self-contradictory, broken
English "FAQ," you'd probably have known it was a scam.
Full OEM CDs that are full retail versions that are legal as
backup media? Shipped from Eastern Europe? Definitely not
legitimate CDs.
That is definitely _not_ an OEM license. That is one of the
well-known "leaked/pirated" Volume License Product IDs. See this
article for details:

You'll need to purchase and use a _legitimate_ full retail copy of
WinXP Pro to perform a repair (a.k.a. in-place upgrade) installation,
using the new CD and Product Key, if you wish to continue using WinXP.

Remember, you should also report whomever sold you the pirated
software to the pertinent law enforcement agencies; you've been
defrauded.
