Either you use it, or you don't. I use it, hopeing that MS will eventually fix the problem that caused it. List your reasons why :)

No

The less MS knows the better

(even though it *appears* that this is a good feature for future fixes)
 

If it's something that they should know about I do. If it's a buggy app, nah.

no, also turned off all error messages as well. If something wants to crash let it, i dont need to be told it crashed

Never. Even though I haven't looked into it enough to verify it, but my insticts tell me it's reporting more than what MS needs to know.

The amount of those I get makes me crazy, is it just me? I think this is the biggest beta test ever done, LOL.

Why, so they can see that i'm using the same serial number as 10,000,000 other people who use their OS? I'll pass :D

ms could easily do that whenever they want, there's no need for them to sneak that into the error reporting.

They need US to tell them of bugs? I don't think so. They have their hundreds (thousands?) of programmers + they have beta testers. They don't need and won't use our "error reports".
