There has been a lot of discussion recently about various privacy breaches
this patch does,
including disabling various form of mp3 files playback, conversion etc i.e.
Microsoft
has the power to do so as mentioned in the agreement we sign when using this
patch. I rolled back my
computer following that but am willing to be corrected on this.
Regards
