How do you sensibly tell a user "we are listening to this conversation"?

Like Google did it in the old days?

> "READ THIS VERY CAREFULLY, THIS IS NOT THE NORMAL YADDA YADDA

> We are going to READ ALL YOUR FILES to index them.

> If you have a problem with this, cancel the installation.

> We are not going to ..."

This is how I remember that part of the installation process for Google Desktop Search. Crystal clear. I knew exactly what was supposed to happen and I had a warning in case it wouldn't be OK with policies at work.

And yes, YADDA YADDA or something similarily sounding was part of the first line.

"we are listening to this conversation"

That should do it, I think.
