Does anyone still read the EULA before installing a program?

I don't care for them at all. Nearly all the softwares have an EULA to accept before installing but I don't even know what the EULA of Windows Xp mentiones so I can't really say I obey everything they mention in the EULA. In fact it would be too hard really. As I have just said, I haven't read it for windows xp but if it has something like installing limit (after formatting your pc) or anything else like that (other computers in my home) I might have broken it a few times. Anyway, I think they also consider it might be broken many times and it looks they target commercial users more than the home users with the EULA stuff. At least it is what I hope :) Whenever I download a program from the internet I also don't read the EULA most of the time because it is too long. In addition,the program won't install if I don't accept it so I will have to accept it after reading. I just do that before reading and after my job has been done with that program, I can uninstall it anytime. I did this for some movie file type converters.

I do read them sometimes. The thing is I don't understand most of the jargon used. I'm a computer dummy through and through.

I glance at it and it nearly always says the same lol I scroll through it and then agree

I must admit I read or at least scheme through them before accepting. The EULA is basically a contract which stipulates the service that will will be provided and since I was young I was taught never to sign anything without knowing what it is. It may be paranoia or too many conspiracy theories, well if they wanted they could write in a clause for everything you have. Just joking, EULA's are generally all similar and basically harmless.

Holy baby, no! What's the point of reading when you can't change a thing? Either you use it or you don't.

Kind duh bit one sided, right Asylum? The only guys I think that would read these are the lawyers. Even the creators of these EULAs know very well that this will just be ignored. The only part there I seek and read is the check box for "I have read this..." and "I Agree".

i dont think anyone have ever read the eula before installing software.i have never read that even though i have installed many softwares to the date

Nope. I have never ever read the EULA before. The only time I read something like that is if I'm looking to use something on my website and I read the copyright agreement.
