OK first off i have a legal version of win 7 U x64 which is up to date, however i have been reading that some of the recent windows 7 updates have been rather, shall we say sneaky and by that i mean it's calling home rather alot, this is what i have read from one newsgroup
Also while on the subject of windows 7 updates do we know what updates to AVOID to get any of this windows 10 stuff they are pushing on people.

If this is true do we know what updates have done this so i can get rid of them?Be warned that some recent M$ updates for Windows 7 that implement
phone-home tactics bypass the hosts file and call the mothership
directly. Sneaky ****ers.
