Actually, if you look really closely, you'll see that the error window says "Your software license has expired. Please obtain a valid license."

So, you've got a country that hosts terrorists, using an invalid copy of Microsoft's software. Are you surprised? I'm pretty sure (not 100%, but pretty sure) that Iran is one of the countries that is not allowed to have any computer hardware or software technology exported to. When I worked at PanCanadian Oil, every shipment of computer parts we got came with a huge list of "forbidden countries". I always wondered how that was expected to be enforced?
