system
28
I am another person who has had Windows invalidated.

I have Windows Vista that came with my Toshiba.
It is not a pirated version.
I have had the computer for three years with no problem.
I had issues with my computer due to a virus and updated the latest Avast software …
[ see Nov. 29, 2011 thread in the Avast forum Virus and Worms: http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=89286.0 ]
And on December 12 my computer started up and indicated that my Windows was possibly not validated.
Other than the Avast update and Malewarebites download and the other things documented in the thread, nothing else was done to my computer.

Does someone know how to get around this???
My computer was able to start in SafeMode, so I’ve unloaded all my important Data – but I would like to be able to use my computer again.
Suggestions anyone?
