Erm that doesnt mean that they cant downloaded and execute what they want. Unless your firewall blocks them accessing the internet.
EULA's dont document every little thing the program does
What a program could hypothetically do illegally and what you agree to on the EULA are 2 completely different things. I responded to a post by Patchou where he claims that the licenses of ANY other software has similar clauses that make it legal for the software to download and execute whatever it wants. And THIS is simply not just untrue but completely misleading. The opposite is true. NO legitimate software I know of has such a clause in it. Again. Prove me wrong. Show me an example in any of the packages i listed above of such language. If the language isnt in the EULA then its illegal for the software to download and execute whatever it wants on my computer. If a company chooses to do illegally download and execute whatever it wants on user's computers this company wont be in business very long.
