why are my word documents locked?

[Guest]

Every time I open word document a message comes up asking me to activate the
product, but when i try to activate it another message comes up with a reply
saying your installation can not be activated, because you have activated up
to the limit for you product key, how can this be as i have never activated
it before?
Every time i used to get asked to activate i just pressed cancel, and word
worked fine.
Now when i try to use it i get a message saying this modification is not
allowed. I've tried the instructions from the mvp faq site, and i deleted
all the files from the temp folder, but one still remains and i can't delete
it because it said it is being used by another program, is this file the
problem? If it is what do I do?
Please could someone help as this is urgent
Thank you

Hi Tom

It sounds like you need to telephone the Microsoft team about the
activation.

There is lots of information here:

Hope this helps.

No, Anup

It's happening because he has a stolen copy of the software. Let him find
that out from Microsoft
