Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA) is an anti-piracy system created by Microsoft that enforces online validation of the licensing of several recent Microsoft Windows operating systems when accessing several services, such as Windows Update, and downloading Windows components from the Microsoft Download Center. In Windows 7, WGA is renamed Windows Activation Technology.
For Windows XP (Do It Yourself process):(it supports 2003 Server also)(noobs)

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.
For example:
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.
Right Click on it and then select Run As Administrator
as mentioned;
Is this solves your problem ?

osam man….
@Sourav acharya……….. Hey fella, u from bangalore???
works perfectly…. thanks…
To disable Just-In-Time debugging by editing the registry
In the Start menu, click Run.
In the Run dialog box, type regedit, then click OK.
In the Registry Editor window, locate and delete the follow registry keys:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AeDebug\Debugger
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework\DbgManagedDebugger
If your computer is running a 64-bit operating system, delete the following registry keys also:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AeDebug\Debugger
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\.NETFramework\DbgManagedDebugger
Take care not to accidentally delete or change any other registry keys.
Close the Registy Editor window.
Hey i want to enable JIT debugging like Deepjyothi. You have given the steps to disable JIT debugging.
How do I enable it in Windows XP so that I can run a software that is throwing up this error.
Thanks for your help
To enable/disable Just-In-Time debugging
To enable Just In Time debugging in Visual Studio, please go to Toos -> Options -> Debugging -> Just-In-Time and check the type of code. We have to run it with Administrator’s previledge once we enabled it. Please take a look at this document on how to enable/disable Just-In-Time debugging:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/k8kf6y2a.aspx
Go to start and type regedit.exe.
Delete the following keys:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AeDebug\Debugger
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework\DbgManagedDebugger
If you use a 64-bit machine, please delete the following keys:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AeDebug\Debugger
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\.NETFramework\DbgManagedDebugger
That should be it
