And according to their EULA,
"7. INTERNET-BASED SERVICES....
a. Consent for Internet-Based Services. The software features described below...
connect to Microsoft...computer systems over the Internet....You may switch off
these features or not use them....Windows Update Feature....You can switch off
this update feature." (emphasis mine)
And so on through several further pages of legalese. So no, their EULA does not give them
the right to install software on your machine. You did not agree to any such installation.
IANAL, but that sounds like they're in breach of their own contract.
