Thank you for taking the time to resond. We are pursuing that. I also started a claim in Ebay. It's a good fake, I'll give them that. In any event, I'm glad I've found this forum. :)

Well, after writing this, we did some more searching, and I'm pretty sure it's a fake! The hologram on the CD looks good, but it is a sticker. Any advice on this? It seems that Microsoft will give you a replacement for turning this one in. Is that a good option? Thank you!

We purchased what appears to be a genuine Office 2007 Pro set from an ebay seller. When we try to load the CD on our computer it AVG flags the autorun.exe file on the CD as malware. The option is to quarantine or continue. When I click to quarantine, it goes through that routine, then prompts a restart. Same thing on successive tries, as it isn't actually removing the file from the CD. We have a couple laptops in the house, as well, so I tried it in each of them. In one it didn't load, no response to the CD at all. In the second, it started as in our computer, but after clicking quarantine, it appeared that the setup would continue, but I didn't do it as we don't want to install it on that computer. We are all running Vista. Ours is Home Premium. The laptop it appeared to work on is Home Basic, I think. I have sent an email to Microsoft and AVG, and searched the web in forums like this, but I'm not finding a good answer. Do you think the CDs are geniune? Would you risk skipping the quarantine to see what happens? Any ideas will be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
