I disagree.  Almost _every_ new Microsoft-based program checks its home
website, sometimes for logging and sometimes anonymous as in this case.
It is really interesting to use a linux firewall for a modern MS system.

In this case, the bit I object to is simply
(1) that the transfer doesn't get cached (hence my CVS comment)
(2) that there is no fallback for low bandwidth clients
