Disable Office v.X network serial number check
Authored by: dhiren123 on Mar 02, '12 02:27:45PM

I have just happened to figure out an easy and hassle free way of using microsoft word without having to get that error message again.
This is for MAC users.

System Preferences > Security > Firewall > Turn it on > Go to Advanced > Add Microsoft Word in the list (if not previously added > change the setting by clicking on the arrows to "Block all incoming connections" > After you're done, click OK

Switch on Word after this, your problem shouldn't persist any longer.

Make sure your Firewall is turned ON at all times.

Cheers!
