Microsoft Products worries.

Recently my friend opened his MS Office (Word) and begin to write but unfortunately a pop-up window showed that "You are not eligible to write on this software".

Even the microsoft Photo Editor is not opening.

What may have gone wrong?
please help us.

Dump MS Ofice, try openOffice.org freeware

Any more suggestion.Can it be blocked due to Microsoft Genuine Advantage Tool or something like that.

You can try with System Restore (if its on) to revert back to a previous day when it was working properly.
Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore.

If that too doesn't work try doing a Xp Repair.Follow this :

It looks more like a case of infection. I dont remember Microsoft Word giving that message.BTW is it a pirated or genuine copy?

Run a Spyware Check
If he has Norton Anti-Virus installed, ask him to uncheck the office plug in from the options
