How would you convince a judge that you ran a program designed to remove the EULA, and now that it gone you don't need to follow it!? The argument seem too easily shut down with common sense. Why did you run a program designed to remove EULA's in the first place? Of course he would say you did it to circumvent a legal requirement! I'd love to see someone who got away with that. One thing would be to remove it at Microsoft before they implemented it on the CD, or their web site. This way you could argue that you never received it, and that would be easily proven. -- Steve Szmidt V.P. Information Technology Video Group Distributors, Inc.
