Possibly. Some have said that WGA can make mistakes.
What is the model number of your computer?

If you have a legal copy of Windows you should contact your computer manufactor and/or Microsoft about the problem.

if you have had a legal copy, someone has stolen your key, or borrowed the genuine installation cd then stealthily activated it through his/her pc! Duh, nonsense if you have a fake copy, its the same as the original one unless not activated nor cracked

we do not promote crack on this site and we do not speak of any either so you can use at your own risk but be aware that it could be illegal if you do it.

First please remove the bad language from your post. It is unnessary.
Like I said above you should contact your computer manufactor about the problem.
If you list what your computer manufactor is I can help you with that.
