Fair enough, though I still think that it's counter-productive, secondly, and upon closer reading, I notice that the T & Cs and the EULA are one and the same; so my previous complaint about the EULA has been partly rendered null and void. For once I could and should have read the EULA before downloading. Though why they (along with 99.99% of all software devs.) felt the need to shove it in my face whilst installing I'll never understand.
