The product key used to activate Windows on your PC is a volume license key that has been blocked by Microsoft

I was trying to install Microsoft Security Essentials software on my computer at home as well as downloading updates for my computer, when it gave me the above error message. PLEASE HELP! I do have my product keys for about 8 years now and recently had a hard drive replaced. Since then my computer has issues with almost everything?
