This is weird and just started to happen today....
I own a retail box version of Ghost 10 that I purchased in 2006. It has worked great the entire time. Today the tray icon states that the "product license expired".
It asked if I want to activate now, I chose yes and went thru the process, double checked my product key, etc. At the end of the process is wont activate and the dialog box briefly flashes the phrase "A8KEY Abuse". I tried several times and checked that I entered the key correctly.
I dont get it, does it mean someone stole my serial number or something??? How can this happen.
The computer is a Dell Optiplex 170L, XP Pro sp 3
Is there a fix for this glitch?
Thanks for the help.

did you try this yet? seems there is a problem with dell systems and ghost 10 and the fix is to reinstall norton ghost 10. If you have a newer version of Norton virus product say NIS 2009 you may want to reinstall that too because installing a old product over a new one is never a good thing.
Hope that helps you.

Do let us know how it goes especially if jarry’s suggestion is the answer.
