Re: What is this packet? Going to M$

Yes, it appears to be a list of files and their version numbers and that's 
not surprising.. microsoft tells you that they do this if you read..

If you read the privacy statement in windows XP, for example, it states 
that it sends no personally identifiable information. They also explicitly 
tell you that they do send:

Operating-system version number
Internet Explorer version number
Version numbers of other software for which Windows Update provides updates
Plug and Play ID numbers of hardware devices
Region and Language setting


Perhaps you should read that privacy statement in full.
