If the user selects “Do not change” in the Windows Security Center will not change the automatic update, and privacy options in Office 2010 has not changed, which means in effect is the default privacy option.
Office 2010 applications, the default privacy options are as follows:
• Office 2010 applications are not connected to Office.com to get updated Help content, and is not detected on your computer, Office applications to provide users with improved search results.
• Office 2010 applications do not download a small program to help diagnose the problem, and not to send Microsoft error message information.

As the “Welcome to Microsoft Office 2010″ dialog box allows the user to enable or disable some Internet-based service, so you may need to prevent the dialog box appears and configure these services separately. If you suppress the dialog box, it is recommended that you enable all Internet-based service, you can configure privacy options to do this.
