Forgot to mention earlier, just ran a boot scan with avast5 which is the second time i have done so and on both occasions im left with a message on the bottom left of the screen telling me this version of windows is not genuine . Windows vista [TM Build 6002]. Has anyone else encountered the same thing?
No. Is it true…??

Dunno how do i find out?
Sorry, wasn’t quite clear…
Is it true your Windows isn’t genuine…??
Btw, never encountered that behavior from a boot time scan…

system came pre loaded with computer from reputable retailer so i assume its genuine, unless its detecting some part of the system thats been altered since purchase.
So you did alter it…?

I would reference http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=51790.0
It seems to touch on the fact Avast! found some files in a previous definition version to be a virus that were windows genuine authentication files.
