reactivation of windows xp?

R

ronald

Upon startup a message pops up which says,"Since windows
was first activated on this computer,the hardware on the
computer has changed significantly.Due to these changes
windows must be reactivated within 3 days." I haven`t
changed any hardware for over a year.Might this be a spoof
or trojan? I am hesitant to do so...
