The directory in question is located at Windows/System32/GWX. You can't read the files where they are, most will give wrong path errors (at least what I was getting). The files are protected, and best left alone.

Disconnect yourself from the Internet. I now feel it will send the results itself if tampered with.
To remove the directory (many ways I'm sure, I just did it the way I always do) boot up with another OS (I use MiniXP supplied with Hiren's boot disk 15, in a pinch you can cobble a Boot CD/pen drive using www.Bootdisk.com). Just boot into MiniXP (or other) go to the GWX directory and move it to a Pen Drive (or where ever, just off your system - as it's possible for Win7+ to find and use it from any location (maybe not, but possible)).

Win7+ = Win7 and anything above
Scanned results = Your broswer(s) caches are recorded verbatim, then appended to a log file (config.xml), just over a days worth of activity (in my case).
