I wouldn't be too sure. The reason I brought up the question in the
first place is that I recall an issue where a site was legally taken to
task for deep-linking past a page that users were supposed to go
through.
This is not the case with acrobat reader, adobe shows the text that by
downloading you agree to the eula, and a link to the eula on the download page,
no ok button to click on, no dirty javascript / cookies, they have a clean
wgetable download url, without any tricks needed.
