Why did you buy a PC with Vista ?

I wonder. Anyone know why searchfilterhost.exe would be wanting to
call out to Microsoft all the time? AFAIUI that's supposed to be
indexing all the stuff on my machine, not calling the mother ship...

In another place, discussing Vista, I read it comes with a 'XP downgrade
license'. Maybe not with an OEM version but it might be worth checking.
