Makeace contacts MS ??

Post by fadedGlory »

I have a new firewall, and to my surprise it told me that "'makeace' wants to contact Microsoft over the web" when I export a model from TSM to MSTS!

Has anyone else seen this? Does anybody know why makeace would need to contact Microsoft?

Scary... :-?

I too have seen this.

It does not get the chance to phone home though !

No idea why it would need to, its not getting updates or anything.

Maybe it is sending a copy of our work straight to MS for incorporation in the next release of MSTS :drinking:
