You're first post showed up fine. Sometimes it takes a few minutes for it to
show up. You need to wait more than 4 minutes.
But anyway.......... yet another back door? There are no back doors that
allow ms access to your machine or that provides ms with any personal
information about you or your computer. Some online installs need objects to
access the net temporarily to finish the install. I'm sure there some logs
on the server, but nothing different than any other website would do.
Don't confuse and exploit a hacker can do, with a backdoor.
