Weasel words in a EULA do you no good at all if people don't buy your 
product. McAfee management will be acutely aware that they *cannot* afford 
for this to happen again any time soon, and they will currently be having 
meetings on how to redesign their QC. I'd predict that this will include 
hiring a bunch of people, and spending a big bunch of money on computers.
