That conclusion makes no sense I'm afraid.
First of all, the install disk I used was legit. Second, the files that should be present if this was an actual windows genuine notification are not present on my computer.
Also, there's the fact that my windows genuine notification disappeared after I removed it with my anti-virus.
This is why I'm posting here to begin with.
Edit: Like I said, I also didn't install the windows update that installs the windows genuine notification. I have tripple checked that it isn't installed.
