• 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 using the Internet,
when available.
• IP
v6 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 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."
• Information Rights Management.
The software contains a feature that allows you to create
content that cannot be printed, copied or sent to others without your permission. You may
need to connect to Microsoft to use this feature for the first time. Once a year, you may need
to re-connect to Microsoft to update it. For more information, go to
www.office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/HA010397891033.aspx. You may choose not to
use this 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.
• Win
dows 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 computer does not have the correct ones for playing content.
You can switch off this last feature. For more information, go to
go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=51331.
• Windows (or Microsoft) Update Feature.
Windows Update Feature. This is an optional feature
that you can enable by selecting the "Opt In" dialogue box. Once enabled, this feature
automatically connects to Microsoft or service provider computer systems over the internet
to provide updates from Microsoft to your software and Runtime. In some cases, you will not
receive a separate notice when they connect. Standard information about your computer is
sent each time the feature connects. Standard computer information may include 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 service available to
you. You may switch off this feature or not use it. By using this feature, you consent to the
transmission of this information. Microsoft does not use the information to identify or
contact you.
4. BENCHMARK TESTING. You must obtain Microsoft's prior written approval to disclose to a third
party the results of any benchmark test of the software. However, this does not apply to the
Microsoft .NET Framework (see below).
