Hello, I'm new here. I have to say this impacts me. While it can't
really be classified as a bug, I think it does present a problem. I will
not accept any EULAs on my systems. Therefore This package is unusable
for me. I understand Mozilla's need to protect it's rights, but this was
the wrong way. Had they required you to put up a license to use, and
respect their trademarks ( a TULA), that I could live with. I will not
have my software encumbered by EULAs though. Since you must implement
this, and want to keep Firefox as a default option; I think you need to
offer an alternative for those that click "do not accept". I think the
number of users not willing to accept this will be significant. I for
one do not welcome our new EULA overlords. BTW, I run my own software
consulting firm, so I'm not just some crackpot. I'm a radical F/OSS
crackpot consultant hiding behind an anonymous coward personality. ;)
