7. INTERNET-BASED SERVICES. Microsoft provides Internet-based services with the software. It may change or cancel them at any time.

a. Consent for Internet-Based Services. The software features described below and in the
Windows Vista Privacy Statement connect to Microsoft or service provider computer systems over the Internet. In some cases, you will not receive a separate notice when they connect. You may switch off these features or not use them. For more information about these features, see the Windows Vista Privacy Statement at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=20615.  By using these features, you consent to the transmission of this information. Microsoft does not use the information to identify or contact you.

Computer Information. The following features use Internet protocols, which send to the
appropriate systems computer information, such as your Internet protocol address, the type of operating system, browser and name and version of the software you are using, and the language code of the device where you installed the software. Microsoft uses this information to make the Internet-based services available to you.

· Windows Update Feature. You may connect new hardware to your device. Your device
may not have the drivers needed to communicate with that hardware. If so, the update
feature of the software can obtain the correct driver from Microsoft and install it on your
device. You can switch off this update feature.

· Web Content Features. Features in the software can retrieve related content from Microsoft and provide it to you. Examples of these features are clip art, templates, online training, online assistance and Appshelp. You may choose not to use these web content features.

· Digital Certificates. The software uses digital certificates. These digital certificates confirm the identity of Internet users sending X.509 standard encrypted information. They also can be used to digitally sign files and macros, to verify the integrity and origin of the file contents. The software retrieves certificates and updates certificate revocation lists over the Internet, when available.

· Auto Root Update. The Auto Root Update feature updates the list of trusted certificate
authorities. You can switch off the Auto Root Update feature.

· Windows Media Digital Rights Management. Content owners use Windows Media digital
rights management technology (WMDRM) to protect their intellectual property, including
copyrights. This software and third party software use WMDRM to play and copy WMDRM-protected content. If the software fails to protect the content, content owners may ask Microsoft to revoke the software’s ability to use WMDRM to play or copy protected content. Revocation does not affect other content. When you download licenses for protected content, you agree that Microsoft may include a revocation list with the licenses. Content owners may require you to upgrade WMDRM to access their content. Microsoft software that includes WMDRM will ask for your consent prior to the upgrade. If you decline an upgrade, you will not be able to access content that requires the upgrade. You may switch off WMDRM features that access the Internet. When these features are off, you can still play content for which you have a valid license.

· Windows Media Player. When you use Windows Media Player, it checks with Microsoft for

· compatible online music services in your region;
· new versions of the player; and
· codecs if your device does not have the correct ones for playing content.

You can switch off this last feature. For more information, go to
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=44073.

· Malicious Software Removal/Clean On Upgrade. Before installation of the software, the
software will check and remove certain malicious software listed at
http://www.support.microsoft.com/?kbid=890830  (“Malware”) from your device. When the
software checks your device for Malware, a report will be sent to Microsoft about any
Malware detected or errors that occurred while the software was checking for Malware. No
information that can be used to identify you is included in the report. You may disable the
software’s Malware reporting functionality by following the instructions found at
http://www.support.microsoft.com/?kbid=890830.

· Network Connectivity Status Icon. This feature determines whether a system is connected to a network by either passive monitoring of network traffic or active DNS or HTTP queries. The query only transfers standard TCP/IP or DNS information for routing purposes. You can switch off the active query feature through a registry setting.

· Windows Time Service. This service synchronizes with time.windows.com once a week to
provide your computer with the correct time. You can turn this feature off or choose your
preferred time source within the Date and Time Control Panel applet. The connection uses
standard NTP protocol.

· IPv6 Network Address Translation (NAT) Traversal service (Teredo). This feature helps
existing home Internet gateway devices transition to IPv6. IPv6 is next generation Internet
protocol. It helps enable end-to-end connectivity often needed by peer-to-peer applications. To do so, each time you start up the software the Teredo client service will attempt to locate a public Teredo Internet service. It does so by sending a query over the Internet. This query only transfers standard Domain Name Service information to determine if your computer is connected to the Internet and can locate a public Teredo service. If you

· use an application (e.g. Windows Meeting Space) that needs IPv6 connectivity or
· configure your firewall to always enable IPv6 connectivity

by default standard Internet Protocol information will be sent to the Teredo service at
Microsoft at regular intervals. No other information is sent to Microsoft. You can change
this default to use non-Microsoft servers. You can also switch off this feature using a
command line utility named “netsh”.

b. Use of Information. Microsoft may use the computer information, error reports, and Malware reports to improve our software and services. We may also share it with others, such as hardware and software vendors. They may use the information to improve how their products run with Microsoft software.

c. Misuse of Internet-based Services. You may not use these services in any way that could harm them or impair anyone else’s use of them. You may not use the services to try to gain unauthorized access to any service, data, account or network by any means.

Also für meine Ansichten von PC (Personal Computer) trifft das schon zu.

Hier der Originaltext der Stellen der EULA, vom MS-PDF:

. VALIDATION.
  a. The software will from time to time validate the software, update or require download of
     the validation feature of the software. Validation verifies that the software has been
     activated and is properly licensed. Validation also permits you to use certain features of
     the software or to obtain additional benefits. For more information, see
     http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=39157.
  b. During a validation check, the software will send information about the software and the
     device to Microsoft. This information includes the version and product key of the
     software, and the Internet protocol address of the device. Microsoft does not use the
     information to identify or contact you. By using the software, you consent to the
     transmission of this information. For more information about validation and what is sent
     during a validation check, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=69500.
  c. If, after a validation check, the software is found not to be properly licensed, the
     functionality of the software may be affected. For example, you may
     ·    need to reactivate the software, or
     ·    receive reminders to obtain a properly licensed copy of the software,
     or you may not be able to
     ·    use or continue to use some of the features of the software, or
     ·    obtain certain updates or upgrades from Microsoft.
   d. You may only obtain updates or upgrades for the software from Microsoft or authorized
       sources. For more information on obtaining updates from authorized sources see
       http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=69502.
6. POTENTIALLY UNWANTED SOFTWARE. If turned on, Windows Defender will search
   your computer for “spyware,” “adware” and other potentially unwanted software. If it finds
   potentially unwanted software, the software will ask you if you want to ignore, disable
   (quarantine) or remove it. Any potentially unwanted software rated “high” or “severe,” will
   automatically be removed after scanning unless you change the default setting. Removing
   or disabling potentially unwanted software may result in
   ·   other software on your computer ceasing to work, or
   ·   your breaching a license to use other software on your computer.
   By using this software, it is possible that you will also remove or disable software that is not
   potentially unwanted software.
