None of this software is sold to you, only licensed and as such they can
specify whatever terms and conditions, more or less, that they and their
lawyers like. I'm afraid, you compromised your principles when you accepted
the terms of the license! <g>
What I object to is Adobe making IE the default for viewing HTML docs! On my
Mac, even though the default browser is now Mozilla (sidelined Safari
because you can't rearrange bookmarks alphabetically or import/export
bookmarks and opens every window to the size it likes and not the size I
set), when IE fires up, it asks me if I want to make it the default browser
and I say NO and tick Do NOT Show This Message Again - Ever. And guess what?
It asks me EVERY friggin time!!!
