For sure i haven't - Jane (earlier post) referred to it as 'Customer
Experience Improvement Program' which sounds very much how i remember it
albeit not exactly as/where she described

It was switched on by default and i switched it off (took the tick out) & it

Notice also 'Dean - Dean' posted similar settings for same 'Customer
Experience Improvement Program.' for Media Center

For sure i have seen it, it is switched on (default) and it is tracking your
Internet usage as part of M/S 'Customer Experience Improvement Program.'
