    Now this is a cool story!! A lot of companies have been pushing it just a little too far with the EULA. I mean in normal life it would be a crime for companies to do some of the things software companies are doing. Thats why i have been slowly replacing most of my desktop apps with open source versions. The last thing i need is companies using my precious bandwidth to call home!!
