"If your computer runs Windows, and is attached to the Internet, it carries on a continuing dialog with Microsoft, without your knowledge or permission."

I am afraid that is not correct. There is a point when one is asked if it is OK that the PC is checked over by MS if you say no, it won't happen. If you have agreed in the past it is also possible to remove permission restrictively.

To answer the OP's question. You buy a license or go to China.

I found this...

"If your computer runs Windows, and is attached to the Internet, it carries on a continuing dialog with Microsoft, without your knowledge or permission. Don't believe me? Install something like Zone Alarm and have it monitor outgoing traffic. Microsoft assigns your computer a unique GUID (Globally Unique Identifier), so they know who you are (that's how the guy who wrote the Melissa virus got caught)."
