To help improve the quality of SP1, installing RC1 version of SP1 will activate the Customer Experience Improvement Program (CEIP) for the computer regardless of the previous settings. This program will be activated until SP1 is uninstalled.
CEIP collects basic information about computers and how users use the product. CEIP may also collect limited information about other software that is running on the computer in order to improve how SP1 interacts with that software. These reports are sent to Microsoft, and are used to:
Improve the features that are used most often.
Create solutions for common issues.
CEIP does not take actions other than those described in the privacy policy, and you can choose to stop participating at any time after installing SP1. During the SP1 installation metrics are sent to Microsoft but none of these metrics contain personally identifiable information. For more information, see Microsoft Customer Experience Improvement Program (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=60475).
