I have been running my version of XP pro for three years & have dutifully
taken advantage of all updates as they have become available. Suddenly MS
claims my version is a pirated copy & that I should take it with my retailer.

Approached the retailer (Dick Smith) who confirmed that my version of XP is
genuine and that its MS' problem. They calim that it has been happening alot
lately and that there is nothing they can do.

Any suggestions on how I can resolve this
