I don't care if they know what MS products I have on my computer. Well, I do, but I'm less bothered by that. It's the Windows Update to update all my software that you were mentioning. If by "all" you were including non-MS products. If you meant all MS stuff, then sure.

And BTW - they know what's on your computer even if you don't activate it, use it for one day and then get rid of it. See my post here
