C:\WINDOWS\system32,
Click on Show the contents of this folder to make files viewable

(2)Click Tools-> Folder Options->View->Click to unselect Hide extensions for known file types
(3)Rename WGALogon.dll to WGALogon1.dll

Another method is to disable execution rights for WGALogon.dll

(2)Right click WgaLogon.dll in C:\WINDOWS\system32 to open the Security Tab->Advanced button->Uncheck the Inherit box->Select Copy->OK
(3)Delete Read & Execute permission for WgaLogon.dll->OK and restart your computer

Download RemoveWGA to remove the WGA Notification tool. This will disable the WGA Notification tool and does not validate your copy of Windows.
