I was working on my home PC when it logged me out of both windows explorer and outlook as it started to run a virus scan. After it ran the scan it asked me to log in and update my account. I only purchased the XP Home Security 2012 anti-virus software on 8th July, (last month). I wrote down the license code and the licence key but the system today was asking me for a 'registration' key which I do not have. If it is on an email I can't get access to it as my home PC will not let me open windows outlook or explorer.

We have previously written about a method for for Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Office programs using a tool called ProduKey. ProduKey is a great program from Nirsoft that works with Microsoft products and third-party software also. We have found another free tool, called LicenseCrawler, that recovers license keys by crawling through the registry to find all the license keys and serial numbers for all software installed on your system.
Download LicenseCrawler from. NOTE: We chose to download LicenseCrawler from FreewareFiles. Softonic has an extra download process you must go through to get the file. I also did a VirusTotal check on their website and the setup file and both came up clean for malware/spyware. The program does show some ads in it when you do a search, but you can disable it easily.
You will get a.zip file from FreewareFiles. LicenseCrawler does not need to be installed. Simply, unzip the file you downloaded and double-click the LicenseCrawler.exe file to run LicenseCrawler.
The Select your Language dialog box displays. Select the desired language from the drop-down list and click OK.
The LicenseCrawler license dialog box displays. Click Accept to continue. The selected language and the fact that you accepted the license can be saved into a settings file, if you choose to.

The Searching for Computer dialog box displays while LicenseCrawler searches for other machines in the network. If there are no other machines on the network, an error displays.
