Symptoms

When you start a Microsoft Office Home and Student 2010 or 2007 program, the title bar of the program displays the name of the program followed by "non-commercial use." For example, Microsoft Office Excel 2007 displays "Microsoft Excel non-commercial use" or "Book1 - Microsoft Excel non-commercial use."
