Mike,

How much of a grace period does ms give you when they detect a

On my last occurence, it was 3 days. But it wasn't the first time for that
key (more like the 4th), and I don't remember if the earlier ones were
longer. But you should have at least 3 days.

Office XP was deactivated with no grace period, and the online activation
would not accept it either.
