Perhaps the bracketed "free" with smiley means he's hacked or pirated
the payware version?

Yes... really, really. Two words: Serial Number (valid, of course).
And don't any of you tell me you're not using a payware software title for free... for any reason!

By installing it, you invited M$ to make your system more secure.
They did exactly that...from their perspective.
No reason to deride a program for doing what you asked.

If you don't like what they did, from your perspective,
you should not use the program.

Personally, I NEVER run any program from M$ unless there's no other
option...M$ is more interested in helping M$ than in helping me...
as they should be from the shareholder perspective...but that's just my
perspective.
