If you've run a windows update lately, you may have downloaded the Genuine Advantage software which pops up that message.
I think you're probably along the right lines there, although just because WGA pops up that message doesn't automatically mean that your copy of Windows is pirated. WGA is notoriously buggy - there's a forum here that discusses many of the issues: Speak to us at Microsoft!
