management technology (WDRM) to protect their copyrights and other intellectual property,
including by disabling the software's ability to play protected content if WDRM fails. You agree that
Microsoft may include a revocation list with the licenses.
c.
Windows Media Player. When you use Windows Media Player, it checks with Microsoft for
compatible online music services in your region and new versions of the player. You may only use
Windows Media Player as described at go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=104605.
d. Windows Defender. If turned on, Windows Defender will search your licensed device for many types
of malicious software, including viruses, worms, bots, rootkits, "spyware", "adware" and other
potentially unwanted software. If it finds potentially unwanted software, the software will ask you if
you want to ignore, disable (quarantine) or remove it. If you choose the "recommended" security
settings when you first start using the software, such malware and other potentially unwanted
software rated "high" or "severe" will automatically be removed. This removal may result in other
software on your licensed device ceasing to work or your breaching a license to use that software.
It is possible that software that is not unwanted may be removed or disabled. If you use Windows
Defender and Windows Update, Windows Defender is regularly updated through Windows Update.
e. Malicious software removal. If you use Windows Update, at least once each month the software will
scan for and remove from your licensed device the malware listed at
go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=241725. After the scan completes, a report will be sent to
Microsoft with specific information about malware detected, errors, and other information about
your device. This information is used to improve the software and other Microsoft products. You
may disable the software's reporting functionality by following the instructions found at
go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=241725.
f.
SmartScreen Filter. If enabled, the SmartScreen Filter will check the addresses of webpages and
downloads you attempt to view against a frequently updated list of webpages and downloads that
have been reported to Microsoft as unsafe or suspicious. SmartScreen will also check downloaded
programs that you attempt to run against a list of commonly downloaded or run programs to help
you make more informed trust decisions. More information can be found by visiting the Internet
Explorer Privacy Statement go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=239590. By enabling SmartScreen in
either Windows or Internet Explorer, you consent to this feature, and you agree to use the
SmartScreen Filter only in conjunction with Windows or Internet Explorer. You may not, either
manually or by enabling or authorizing any software or service, copy, display, distribute, collect or
store any data provided by the SmartScreen Filter.
g. IPv6 Network Address Translation (NAT) Traversal service (Teredo). Each time you start your
licensed device, Teredo will attempt to locate a public Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) service on
the Internet. This occurs automatically when your licensed device is connected to a public or private
network, but does not occur on managed networks such as enterprise domains. If you use a
program that requires Teredo to use IPv6 connectivity, or if you configure your firewall to always
enable IPv6 connectivity, then Teredo will periodically contact the Microsoft Teredo service over the
Internet. The only information sent to Microsoft is standard computer information and the name of
the service requested (for example teredo.ipv6.microsoft.com). The information sent from your
licensed device by Teredo is used to determine if your licensed device is connected to the Internet
and if it can locate a public IPv6 service. Once the service is located, information is sent to maintain
a connection with the IPv6 service.
h. Plug and Play and Plug and Play Extensions. Your licensed device may not have the drivers needed
to communicate with hardware that you connect to your licensed device. If so, the update feature
of the software can obtain and install the correct driver on your licensed device. An administrator
can disable this update feature.
i.
Digital certificates. The software uses digital certificates to confirm the identity of Internet users
sending X.509 standard encrypted information, to digitally sign files and macros, and to verify the
integrity and origin of file contents. The software may retrieve and update certificates, certificate
