Windows Vista's legal fine print includes extensive provisions granting Microsoft the right to regularly check the legitimacy of the software and holds the prospect of deleting certain programs without the user's knowledge.

Sounds To Me Like M$ Wants A Piece Of My Balls :shake: ..

Windows Defender, an anti-virus program that actively scans computers for "spyware, adware, and other potentially unwanted software." The agreement does not define any of these terms, leaving it to Microsoft to determine what constitutes unwanted software.


Unwanted Software = Anything M$ finds as a threat to the company hahaha

You should really think about visiting other areas of the forums then. Especially considering that there is already a thread about vista ;)

The article you link to covers a few new things, but otherwise discusses some of the same stuff already raised in the afformentioned thread. Don't be surprised if this thread gets pushed over to General :p

On the bright side, it would seem that some of the proprietary crap that MS is pushing with Vista isn't hard coded, and is quite fallible. This fellow mentions in his blog about how he's managed to crack the DRM scheme, but has yet to post it in lieu of possible legal problems. We'll see.
