This computer is not running genuine windows 0x8004fe21

This just started happening the past week. I reset off my vital simply in instance and it went through. I'm not sure if this is simply a virus or it's actually Microsoft doing some shit. It prompts me to go to this website

http://www.microsoft.com/genuine/validate/?hrOffline=0x8004fe21

Which then prompts me to downpack a "Validating" software application to validay my copy of Windows. Kinda sketchy.

You watching: This computer is not running genuine windows 0x8004fe21

Here are the pictures: *http://i.imgur.com/y8gCFRm.jpg *http://i.imgur.com/htalenc.jpg

Anyone have actually this problem?
