This would be part of the service agreement you agreed to when you bought Xbox-Live. Since Xbox-dash and Xbox-Live are so intergral to one another and any online gaming service you sign up for (battlenet/gamespy/etc..) require that you have the most up-to-date versions to play on their network, I don't belive that this is Illegal. I'm not compleletly surprised at this due to the heavy handed approach Microsoft has taken towards maintaining security on the Xbox-Live network.

I came back home after work, connected my XBOX to the internet and went into the XBOX-Live menu configuration. Well what happened. The XBOX started automaticly downloading the new crappy XBOX-Live dashboard, which is of course fixed. This is IMHO an act of computer sabotage. I have never allowed MS to modify my dashboard or to auto update my dashboard. Is any lawyer on the list who can point me to the right paragraphs? I do not believe this computer sabotage is legal in any european country.
