The only way for this to stop or to try and stop Microsoft from doing this is to take Microsoft to court. In a way Microsoft is Slandering Legal users and Slandering is a Crime..

If you’re on Windows, don’t rely on being able to block access to any hosts in the microsoft.com domain using your hosts file. It’s been documented that Microsoft bypasses the hosts file for certain hosts. (Google for “hosts file”, “Microsoft”, and “bypass”.)

“Microsoft confirmed to the magazine that data is send but it would only be used to optimize the service.”

What would they be able to optomize by a user canceling the install? It was MS just giving the magazine a quick anwser hoping they wouldn’t prob deeper in to the reason for the transport of data.

I stopped using all Microsoft products including Windows after learning of their unethical behavior, spying on customers and treating them like the enemy. I am a computer consultant, so not only have they lost my business but all clients I deal with now and in the future!

Brian I agree that it is best to avoid WGA completely but this is not always possible. Inexperienced users do install it and I think they should know what is happening and how they can prevent certain “things” from happening.

Especially when it comes to privacy.

The best way to avoid the problem is to not allow it to download the update in the first place. Then it is just another update and not WGA.
