So how do we resolve this then? I think my case is the latter one -- "a
retail version, it has not been activated and has now exceeded the number of
times it can be used before activation is required."
Please do respond, i badly need your help here ASAP! I might need a
step-by-step guide on how to unlock it. Thanks a lot...

The usual reason for this is that the application has gone into "reduced
functionality" mode. Either it is a trial version that has expired, or, if a
retail version, it has not been activated and has now exceeded the number of
times it can be used before activation is required.
