as far as I know the only way to get rid of that message is to activate using a proper licence key. Else you'll have to reformat and choose not to install the WGA update, though you need it to install the latest windows media player now.

when that happened to me i just did a restore to before my upgrades then when it tryed to install the upgrades tick the advanced option untick the wga notification at the bottom of the list,you should get an extra message then saying "dont notify me of this upgrade again" check that box & it should be ok.make sure if you turn your automatic upgrades off then back on again that you will have to check that box again.also up dating your media player or installin ie 8 will bring you the same problem.
