This may very well be unenforcible in some jurisdictions.  Even a 
legally-binding contract cannot diminish your statutory rights  {otherwise a 
husband could never be convicted of raping his wife},  and a software licence 
is not by any stretch of the imagination a legally-binding contract.

Check your local law very carefully.  Your end-user licence agreement probably 
is not worth the paper it is printed on.  {Unless it's the GPL or BSD, which 
give you explicit permission over and above your statutory rights provided 
that you abide by certain conditions}.
