I cant beleive that a program can be allowed to scan your computer for files at all, let alone snitch on you.
With the backdoors microsoft always put into their software it wouldnt surprise me if they aint collecting other pesonal information too. Thats some crazy mad shit right there, Im shocked. They really do have to do something about piracy that is understandable, but underhanded spy tactics aint the way forward.
I will never own vista... If you read the fine print they reserve the right to delete anything from your hard drive they don't think you should have... So basically if you got a lot of software or music you don't own vista will rat you out and your files could be deleted. Not to mention all the spyware and bullshit that comes with the initial install.
P the emcee I work with had his computer locked down and his shit deleted... it's right in the license agreement that they can scan your hard drive for illegal files or files they deem illegal and remove them. They won't usually sue you so I hear but that could change if the pressure is applied to clamp down harder on piracy.
