Acceptable license question



Just my notes:
[...]
>SOFTWARE AND DOCUMENTATION.  Digital shall furnish the Software to you
>electronically or on media in source code form.  This license does not
>grant you any right to any enhancement or update to the Software and
>Documentation.

Does this mean: I'm not allowed to request updates?

Looks all right.

Is there anything special in the software?

Dito. Is there encryption etc. in the software?
