You seriously didn't that Microsoft are able to do what they like do Windows when you run Windows Update (either automatically or via the site)? Though I'm curious no one's managed to hijack the Windows Update stuff before....publicly.

Also moaning about them forcing you to have the WGA tool installed is kind of stupid; they have a right to protect their software from being pirated. I'm hardly saying I'm goodie-twoshoes, but think of it like that. If they want to check you're not using a pirated version of Windows, then they can do it if they like. I would if it was my software.
