Yet another little thing form Microsoft X-box Live Labs, this little application takes up a chunk of your network for 6hr and gives you 3 avatar items. this will hopefully fix any issues with X-box connectivity, you can't play games or basically use your X-box throughout any of the tests, only the first 30min cannot be stopped. Find it on your dashboard, run it while your at work or sleeping and enjoy your items.

One note
READ THE AGREEMENTS AND WARNINGS.

I saw this on Major Nelson's blog earlier today. It's 6 hours total so I don't mind doing it - I'll simply leave it on over night. If it's going to possibly help networking on their side I'm all for it. It's not like I have limited bandwidth and the 3 zero point achievements/3 avatar awards are a nice bonus.

Do you play games for 24 hours straight because that is the only possible way to not have enough time. It also isn't a continuous 6 hours, just cumulative time that can just be 30 minutes here or there.

I bet this test will also find hackers/people running illegal games. Kinda like the last dashboard update did. I could care less as I don't hack or use any illegal/modded things, but I wish they would be upfront about it. What info could they possibly need that takes 6 hours to get? Also, even though this may be a noobish question. What are zero point acheivements?

Zero point achievements are just achievements with 0G, just a marker to say 'Hey I did that' like any other achievement.

I'm with you on the whole hack/illegal check, I mean why would it take Microsoft 6hr to do what any ISP can do in less then 30min, oh its Microsoft lol answered that myself I guess XD. Really I would have liked to see more information on what Live Labs was from the start and what the test did entirely, after all I have nothing to worry about I don't even bend the ToS I would just like to see what's going on.

I did this last night while sleeping. There were quite a few others on my friends list doing the same, including a few mods/admins from this site. =p

I would give this a try but I can't seem to find it on my dashboard. I go to the my community tab which is where I thought i was supposed to be, but only see facebook, twiter, kinect video, etc. I live in the USA, any idea why I cant find it?

Obviously not, how would anyone fit 15 hours of gaming in and go to work or school? I guess he might not sleep.

I don't understand. Your mom must homeschool you for 2 hours a day then, granted that you get 8 hours of sleep each night.

Hopefully everybody knows that this is just a trap to find xbox live "Undesirables". Heres what it collects (I DID NOT FIND THESE THINGS BY MYSELF): -CRC Disc drive data - Current Microphone streamings - Profile IDs, Games Played, Data, XUID, Achievement Data, Microsoft Points, Memberships. (xuacs/XeGetPaymentInstruments.ashx./xuacs/XeGetPointsBalance.ashx./xuacs/GetPostalCode.ashx./xuacs/GetSubscriptionInfo.ashx) - Current Screen IO/IOOut Settings - Sends All information, of corrupted data re-routed to a MICROSOFT email. - Grabs your crashdump.pix, and NAND information (looking for rebooters o.o) - ANY information you have inputted, including messages, suggested gamertags, payments, and friend requests... - ALL Gamertags you have ever had on that IP. (XeABCHGetContactlistGamertags.ashx) - Any License Transfers/Machine Transfers (xbos/TransferMachineLicenses.ash) I did not find this info personally but it is indeed very fishy of MS. Oh well right?
