Archetypal End-user Agreement

Reading the end user agreements which appear when you download new programs is a long and arduous task which most people are too busy or eager to bother with. If you download programs and fail to read the end user agreements you may have the vague fear that you are missing something important. For your benefit here is a shortened version of every end user agreement which you will ever not read.
