    There it is, in bold print, right in front of my face.

    "A legal agreement between you (either an individual or a single entity)"

    The letter of the EULA does say one person. So if you use private software in the public domain (Commercial virus scanner in a public library), the EULA does not seem to apply to you.

    I am mad that I missed that key phrase the first time.

    If that were true, this could be expanded to include OEM (Original Equipment Manager) bundled software. I honestly think that since the owner of the public computer accepts the EULA, and you use it, it carries down to you. My copy of the Windows 98 EULA seems to agree with me (the EULA does not say anything one way or the other, so it is probably implied). Basically...

    If You Use The Software, You Accept The EULA.

    I am not an attorney though, but I am pretty sure that my argument is true. Correct me if I am wrong!
