Microsoft Windows 2000 Update (SP4)

ERGÄNZENDER ENDBENUTZER-LIZENZVERTRAG

MICROSOFT WINDOWS 2000 SERVICE PACK 4

BITTE LESEN SIE DIESEN ERGÄNZENDEN ENDBENUTZER-LIZENZVERTRAG (”ERGÄNZENDES EULA”) SORGFÄLTIG DURCH. INDEM SIE DIE DIESEM ERGÄNZENDEN EULA BEILIEGENDE SOFTWARE INSTALLIEREN ODER VERWENDEN, ERKLÄREN SIE SICH MIT DEN BESTIMMUNGEN DIESES ERGÄNZENDEN EULAS EINVERSTANDEN. FALLS SIE SICH NICHT EINVERSTANDEN ERKLÄREN, INSTALLIEREN ODER VERWENDEN SIE DIE SOFTWARE NICHT, UND GEBEN SIE SIE GEGEBENENFALLS GEGEN VOLLE RÜCKERSTATTUNG DES KAUFPREISES DER STELLE ZURÜCK, VON DER SIE SIE ERHALTEN HABEN.

DIESE SOFTWARE ÜBERTRÄGT OHNE IHRE ZUSTIMMUNG KEINE PERSÖNLICHEN INFORMATIONEN VON IHREM COMPUTER AN COMPUTERSYSTEME VON MICROSOFT.

1. ALLGEMEINES

Dieses EULA ist ein rechtsgültiger Vertrag zwischen Ihnen (entweder als natürlicher oder als einzelner juristischer Person) und Microsoft Corporation (”Microsoft”). Die beiliegende Microsoft-Software enthält Computersoftware und möglicherweise dazugehörige Medien, gedruckte Materialien, Dokumentation im Online- oder elektronischen Format und internetbasierte Dienste (zusammengefasst die “Komponenten”). Die Komponenten werden zur Verfügung gestellt, um vorhandene Funktionen von Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional, Microsoft Windows 2000 Server, Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server und Microsoft Windows 2000 Datacenter Server (die “Software”) zu aktualisieren, zu ergänzen oder zu ersetzen. Ihre Verwendung der Komponenten unterliegt den Bestimmungen des Endbenutzer-Lizenzvertrags (entweder von Microsoft oder von einer anderen juristischen Person), unter dem Sie zuvor die Software lizenziert haben (das “Software-EULA”), und diesem ergänzenden EULA.

WENN SIE KEINE ORDNUNGSGEMÄSS LIZENZIERTE KOPIE DER SOFTWARE HABEN, SIND SIE NICHT BERECHTIGT, DIE KOMPONENTEN ZU INSTALLIEREN, ZU KOPIEREN ODER ANDERWEITIG ZU VERWENDEN. SIE HABEN AUSSERDEM KEINERLEI RECHTE AUS DIESEM ERGÄNZENDEN EULA.

2. ALLGEMEINE BESTIMMUNGEN FÜR IHRE VERWENDUNG DER KOMPONENTEN
a. Installation und Verwendung. Vorausgesetzt, Sie halten alle anwendbaren Lizenzbestimmungen ein, die im Software-EULA (die hiermit durch Bezugnahme eingeschlossen sind, außer wie weiter unten dargelegt) und diesem ergänzenden EULA enthalten sind, gewährt Microsoft Ihnen das Recht, eine Kopie der Komponenten auf allen Ihren Computern, die eine ordnungsgemäß lizenzierte Kopie der Software ausführen (”Computer”), zu vervielfältigen, zu installieren und zu verwenden.
b. Rechtsvorbehalt. Die Komponenten sind durch Urheberrechtsgesetze und durch andere Gesetze und Abkommen über geistiges Eigentum geschützt. Microsoft Corporation oder deren Lieferanten gehören Titel, Urheberrecht und andere gewerbliche Schutzrechte an den Komponenten. Alle Ihnen in diesem ergänzenden EULA nicht ausdrücklich gewährten Rechte bleiben vorbehalten. Die Komponenten werden lizenziert, nicht verkauft.
c. Begriffe. In diesem ergänzenden EULA verwendete Begriffe, die hierin nicht definiert sind, haben die Bedeutung, die im Software-EULA dafür festgelegt wurde.

3. AUTOMATISCHE INTERNETBASIERTE DIENSTE. Die nachfolgend beschriebenen Features der Software sind standardmäßig für das automatische Herstellen einer Verbindung über das Internet mit Computersystemen von Microsoft aktiviert, ohne gesonderte Benachrichtigung an Sie. Sie stimmen dem Betrieb dieser Features zu, es sei denn, Sie entscheiden sich, sie auszuschalten oder nicht zu verwenden. Microsoft ruft über diese Features keine persönlichen Informationen ab. Weitere Informationen über diese Features finden Sie in der Dokumentation der Software oder auf der Onlinesupportsite von Microsoft.
a. Windows Update-Features. Wenn Sie ein Gerät an den Computer anschließen und der korrekte Gerätetreiber nicht auf dem Computer verfügbar ist, dann versuchen Windows Update-Features auf dem Computer (einschließlich Geräte-Manager und dem Plug & Play-CDM-Modul) unter der Standardkonfiguration der Software automatisch, auf Computersystemen von Microsoft über das Internet den korrekten Gerätetreiber zu ermitteln. Durch die automatische Durchführung dieser Überprüfung wird die Plug & Play-Installation neuer Hardware zu einer besseren Erfahrung für die Kunden. Sie können das Feature zur automatischen Treiberüberprüfung von Windows Update ausschalten.
b. Webinhaltsfeatures. Falls Sie mit dem Internet verbunden sind, sind mehrere Features der Software unter der Standardkonfiguration der Software standardmäßig aktiviert, um Inhalt von Computersystemen von Microsoft abzurufen und Ihnen anzuzeigen. Wenn Sie ein solches Feature aktivieren, verwendet es Internetstandardprotokolle, die den Typ des Betriebssystems, des Browsers und des Sprachcodes Ihres Computers an das Computersystem von Microsoft übertragen, damit der Inhalt auf Ihrem Computer ordnungsgemäß angezeigt werden kann. Diese Features arbeiten nur, wenn Sie sie aktivieren, und Sie können entscheiden, sie auszuschalten oder nicht zu verwenden. Ein Beispiel für dieses Feature ist Appshelp.
c. Digitale Zertifikate. Die Verwendung von Zertifikaten, die auf dem X.509-Standard basieren, stellt ein wichtiges Sicherheitsfeature der Software dar. Bestimmte Funktionen der X.509-Implementierung (beispielsweise Zertifikatsperrüberprüfung und Pfaderstellung für Zertifikate) stellen über das Internet eine Verbindung mit Computersystemen her, die Microsoft und anderen digitalen Zertifizierungsstellen gehören, um die Gültigkeit von digitalen Zertifikaten zu überprüfen, die Sie während bestimmter internetbasierter Betriebsvorgänge (z. B. mit SSL oder IPsec gesicherter Kommunikation, mit S/MIME gesicherter E-Mail sowie Smartcardauthentifizierung) von Dritten empfangen. Gemäß dem X.509-Standard ruft die Software automatisch Benutzerzertifikate und Zertifikatsperrlisten ab, wenn Sie versuchen, auf durch Zertifikate geschützten Inhalt zuzugreifen. Zusätzlich aktualisiert das Feature zur automatischen Aktualisierung von Stammzertifikaten der Software von Zeit zu Zeit die Liste der vertrauenswürdigen Zertifizierungsstellen. Die automatische Aktualisierung von Stammzertifikaten ist ein optionales Feature; Sie können dieses Feature deinstallieren, wenn Sie es nicht wünschen. Die anderen auf dem X.509-Standard basierenden Sicherheitsbetriebsvorgänge können durch das Blockieren des Internetzugangs des Computers am Betrieb gehindert werden.
d. Verwaltung digitaler Rechte von Windows Media. Inhaltsanbieter verwenden die in dieser Software enthaltene Technologie zur Verwaltung digitaler Rechte für Windows Media (”WM-DRM”), um die Integrität ihres Inhalts zu schützen (”Sicherer Inhalt”), damit ihr geistiges Eigentum, einschließlich Urheberrechte, an diesem Inhalt nicht entwendet wird. Teile dieser Software und Anwendungen von Drittanbietern, wie etwa Anwendungen zur Medienwiedergabe, verwenden WM-DRM zum Wiedergeben sicheren Inhalts (”WM-DRM-Software”). Wenn die Sicherheit der WM-DRM-Software gefährdet ist, können Eigentümer von sicherem Inhalt (”Eigentümer sicheren Inhalts”) verlangen, dass Microsoft die Rechte der WM-DRM-Software widerruft, sicheren Inhalt zu kopieren, anzuzeigen und/oder wiederzugeben. Der Widerruf ändert nicht die Fähigkeit der WM-DRM-Software, ungeschützten Inhalt wiederzugeben. Eine Liste widerrufener WM-DRM-Software wird jedes Mal, wenn Sie eine Lizenz für sicheren Inhalt aus dem Internet downloaden, an den Computer gesendet. Microsoft ist in Verbindung mit dieser Lizenz berechtigt, im Auftrag von Eigentümern sicheren Inhalts auch Widerrufslisten auf den Computer zu downloaden. Eigentümer sicheren Inhalts verlangen von Ihnen möglicherweise auch, dass Sie einige der WM-DRM-Komponenten in dieser Software aktualisieren (”WM-DRM-Updates”), bevor Sie auf deren Inhalt zugreifen. Wenn Sie versuchen, diesen Inhalt wiederzugeben, wird Sie die von Microsoft erstellte WM-DRM-Software benachrichtigen, dass ein WM-DRM-Update erforderlich ist, und Sie dann um Ihre Zustimmung bitten, bevor das WM-DRM-Update gedownloadet wird. Von Dritten erstellte WM-DRM-Software verhält sich möglicherweise genauso. Wenn Sie das Update ablehnen, werden Sie nicht auf Inhalt zugreifen können, für den das WM-DRM-Update erforderlich ist; Sie können jedoch weiterhin auf ungeschützten Inhalt und auf sicheren Inhalt zugreifen, für den das Update nicht erforderlich ist. WM-DRM-Features, die auf das Internet zugreifen, z. B. das Erwerben neuer Lizenzen und/oder das Durchführen eines erforderlichen WM-DRM-Updates, können ausgeschaltet werden. Wenn diese Features ausgeschaltet sind, können Sie immer noch sicheren Inhalt wiedergeben, falls auf dem Computer bereits eine gültige Lizenz für diesen Inhalt gespeichert ist.
e. Windows Media Player. Einige Features von Windows Media Player nehmen automatisch Kontakt mit Computersystemen von Microsoft auf, wenn Sie Windows Media Player oder bestimmte Features desselben verwenden: Features, die (A) eine Überprüfung auf neue Codecs durchführen, falls der Computer nicht über die korrekten Codecs für Inhalt verfügt, den Sie versuchen wiederzugeben (dieses Feature kann ausgeschaltet werden), und (B) eine Überprüfung auf neue Versionen von Windows Media Player durchführen (dieses Feature ist nur in Betrieb, wenn Sie Windows Media Player verwenden).

4. PRODUKTSUPPORT
a. Rechte und Verpflichtungen. Microsoft stellt Ihnen möglicherweise Produktsupportleistungen in Verbindung mit der Software bereit. Diese Supportleistungen können entsprechend den Microsoft-Bestimmungen und -Programmen, die im Benutzerhandbuch, in der Dokumentation im Onlineformat, auf der Supportwebseite von Microsoft oder in anderen von Microsoft zur Verfügung gestellten Materialien beschrieben sind, genutzt werden. Jede Software, die Ihnen Microsoft möglicherweise im Rahmen der Supportleistungen bereitstellt, unterliegt diesem EULA, es sei denn, es werden gesonderte Bestimmungen bereitgestellt. Dieses EULA verpflichtet Microsoft nicht, Supportleistungen bereitzustellen oder Support für im Rahmen dieser Leistungen bereitgestellte Software zu leisten.
b. Zustimmung zur Nutzung von Daten. Sie stimmen zu, dass Microsoft und deren Tochterfirmen berechtigt sind, die technischen Daten, die im Rahmen der Ihnen zur Verfügung gestellten Supportleistungen, falls vorhanden, für die Software gewonnen werden, zu sammeln und zu benutzen. Microsoft ist berechtigt, diese Informationen nur zur Verbesserung ihrer Produkte oder zum Liefern von benutzerdefinierten Diensten und Technologien an Sie zu verwenden, und verpflichtet sich, diese Informationen ausschließlich anonym offen zu legen.

5. ANWENDBARE GARANTIEN, AUSSCHLÜSSE UND BESCHRÄNKUNGEN
Wenn die Software an Sie von Microsoft oder einer ihrer 100 %-igen Tochterfirmen lizenziert wurde, gilt die gegebenenfalls im Software-EULA enthaltene beschränkte Garantie für die Komponenten, wenn die Komponenten an Sie innerhalb der Laufzeit dieser beschränkten Garantie lizenziert wurden. Dieses ergänzende EULA verlängert jedoch nicht den Zeitraum, über den diese beschränkte Garantie gilt.
Wenn die Software von einer anderen juristischen Person als Microsoft oder einer ihrer 100 %-igen Tochterfirmen an Sie lizenziert wurde, gilt Folgendes: (a) der Hersteller im Sinne des Software-EULAs stellt unter diesem ergänzenden EULA keine Vertragspartei dar und ist unter diesem ergänzenden EULA nicht verpflichtet, Supportleistungen für die Komponenten bereitzustellen, (b) die Komponenten sind im Sinne des Software-EULAs “ergänzende Komponenten”, und (c) dieses ergänzende EULA ergänzt oder ändert das Software-EULA in keiner Weise. WENN DIE SOFTWARE AN SIE VON EINER ANDEREN JURISTISCHEN PERSON ALS MICROSOFT ODER EINE IHRER 100 %-IGEN TOCHTERFIRMEN LIZENZIERT WURDE, GELTEN AUSSERDEM DIE FOLGENDEN DREI ABSÄTZE:

GARANTIEAUSSCHLUSS. Im größtmöglichen durch das anwendbare Recht gestatteten Umfang stellen Ihnen Microsoft und deren Lieferanten die Komponenten und gegebenenfalls Supportleistungen WIE BESEHEN UND OHNE GARANTIE AUF FEHLERFREIHEIT zur Verfügung. Sie schließen hiermit alle anderen Gewährleistungen und Garantien, gleich ob ausdrücklich, konkludent oder gesetzlich, aus, einschließlich, aber nicht beschränkt auf (falls zutreffend) konkludente Gewährleistungen, Pflichten oder Garantien der Handelsüblichkeit, Eignung für einen bestimmten Zweck, Zuverlässigkeit oder Verfügbarkeit, Genauigkeit oder Vollständigkeit von Antworten, Ergebnisse, mangelnde fachmännische Bemühungen, Virenfreiheit und Fahrlässigkeit – alles in Bezug auf die Komponenten sowie in Verbindung mit den Komponenten zur Verfügung gestellte oder nicht erbrachte Support- oder andere Leistungen, Informationen, Software und dazugehörigen Inhalt – oder die anderweitig aus der Verwendung der Komponenten entstehen. Es wird auch jede Gewährleistung oder Garantie für Eigentum, ungestörte Nutzung, ungestörten Besitz, Übereinstimmung mit der Beschreibung und Nichtverletzung von Rechten Dritter in Bezug auf die Komponenten ausgeschlossen.

AUSSCHLUSS VON FOLGE-, ZUFÄLLIGEN UND BESTIMMTEN ANDEREN SCHÄDEN. Im größtmöglichen durch das anwendbare Recht gestatteten Umfang sind Microsoft oder deren Lieferanten in keinem Fall haftbar für irgendwelche speziellen, zufälligen, strafrechtlichen, indirekten oder Folgeschäden welcher Art auch immer (einschließlich, aber nicht beschränkt auf, Schäden aus entgangenem Gewinn, Verlust von vertraulichen oder anderen Informationen, Geschäftsunterbrechung, Personenschäden, Verlust von Privatsphäre, Verletzung von Vertragspflichten (einschließlich Pflichten nach Treu und Glauben oder Sorgfaltspflichten), Fahrlässigkeit sowie Vermögens- oder sonstige Schäden), die aus der Verwendung der Komponenten oder der Tatsache, dass sie nicht verwendet werden können, oder in Verbindung mit den Komponenten zur Verfügung gestellten Supportleistungen oder anderen Leistungen, Informationen, Software und dazugehörigem Inhalt oder der Tatsache, dass diese nicht bereitgestellt wurden, oder anderweitig aus oder in Verbindung mit einer Bestimmung dieses ergänzenden EULAs resultieren oder in irgendeinem Zusammenhang damit stehen, selbst im Falle von Verschulden, unerlaubten Handlungen (einschließlich Fahrlässigkeit), irreführenden Angaben, verschuldensunabhängiger Haftung oder Produkthaftung, Vertragsbruch oder Verletzung der Garantie von/durch Microsoft oder deren Lieferanten, und selbst wenn Microsoft oder deren Lieferanten auf die Möglichkeit solcher Schäden hingewiesen wurden.

BESCHRÄNKUNG DER HAFTUNG UND VON ANSPRÜCHEN. Ungeachtet aller Schäden, die Sie aus irgendeinem Grund erleiden könnten (einschließlich, aber nicht beschränkt auf alle oben angesprochenen Schäden und alle direkten oder allgemeinen Schäden auf Grundlage eines Vertrags oder Sonstigem), ist die gesamte Haftung von Microsoft und deren Lieferanten unter allen Bestimmungen dieses ergänzenden EULAs und Ihr ausschließlicher Anspruch für alles oben Genannte für tatsächlich von Ihnen im vernünftigen Vertrauen auf die Software erlittene Schäden beschränkt auf den höheren dieser beiden Beträge: den tatsächlich für die Komponenten gezahlten Betrag oder US-$ 5,00. Die vorstehenden Beschränkungen und Ausschlüsse gelten im größtmöglichen durch das anwendbare Recht gestatteten Umfang, auch wenn ein Anspruch seinen wesentlichen Zweck verfehlt.
