The court only refused to uphold the agreement because there was no oppurtunity to review the agreement before purchase. So it certainly wouldn't apply to a click-through type agreement. This is also one ruling by a district court, and the ruling is in the process of being appealed. Anyone relying on this and ignoring a EULA would be foolish indeed. There are several other shrink-wrap cases where courts have enforced the agreements. See, for example, Hill v. Gateway 2000 and Mortgage Plus v. DocMagic. It is reasonable to describe this area as somewhat uncertain. DS -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
