I'm supposing you are visiting some web page to download a MS product?

Wga Plug in install.exe

its the Windows Genuine advantage plugin installation for your browser.

Your system needs to be validated.

 

There are two ways to do this that I've run into, an activeX control

that gets used on MS web pages, or you download and run a tool and then

type in a code on the web page. Either way something has to validate

your system to complete a web page you are on. I'm supposing you are

visiting some web page to download a MS product?
