Hello,

All of a sudden I started having this issue where my Windows Version Info on the desktop & Not Genuine Box Keep Coming Then Going Away? As soon as I right click on Computer and select properties it disappears as says its genuine? Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thank You.

The symptoms you are describing are typical of a race condition.
Such problems are usually the result of malware, or over-zealous security software/settings.

What Anti-Virus do you have installed?
What other Anti-Virus products have EVER been installed?
What other security software is currently installed?

When was the last time you ran a full system scan with your anti-virus - with updated definitions?

Thank You,

It did start happening after I installed the newest version of Microsoft Security Essentials which is the only software besides Spyware Blaster 5.0 that I have used on this computer. I did download and run: Windows6.1-KB947821-v26-x64.msu (Microsoft Update Standalone Package) last night and the issue has not happened since? If it happens again, Is it safe to post the results from the MGADiag utility?

Thanks Again
