Sounds like you have (or.had) an older version of Dell's Roxio software. Try the hotfix in the link below - it says Update Manager, but it's basically the same problem:
If that doesn't work: try to remove Sonic Update Manager and/or Sonic Activation module from Add/Remove. If they won't remove, or still pop up, try this to clean up the remnants - note that with Windows Installer Cleanup you should ONLY remove the Sonic entries you don't want. Don't select anything else.
Unfortunately, Microsoft removed the Installer Cleanup from its site because it doesn't get along with Office - typical for them to throw out the baby with the bathwater. You'd need to get it from an alternate site like the one below - just be sure to choose the download for the utility, not something from the ads.

Hello, I'm trying to find the sonic app module. It does not appear in my uninstall list. I tried doing a search and still no results yet still get invalid activation code. Anyone have any clue as to how to find the module? Would really appreciate it.
