I used the wizard once. It asked for permission and lets the user bail-out
and register nothing. It is optional. It is not required, there is a
postcard for conventional reqistration also.
I'll attempt to preempt a long and useless thread:
MS haters will say this is further evidence of the Great MS World
Domination Campaign.
Some who have not used the wizard will ask what corrective action
they should perform to ensure their security.
Other who have used the wizard will say it is not required, do not
use it if you are concerned.
