Oh - I also forgot to add - I think post-hoc EULAs are pretty much illegal in Europe.

If I *buy* something, and then have to agree to stuff I wasn't expecting to, before I can use it, that falls foul of consumer protection left right and centre. The very first bit of legislation being "fit for purpose".
