Is there a good EULA template for a downloadable application?

I'm planning to put a free Adobe AIR application on my website and would like to include a CYA EULA to have the user acknowledge any defects in the software, etc. are not my responsibility. Is there a good one I can use? Also, will the EULA need to be between the user and a corporate entity, i.e. will I need to create a company? Thanks for any advice. Want to make this application freely available but not have it come back to bite me.

You may find the Open Source Initiative a good resource for EULAs to consider.

http://www.opensource.org/files/garland_logo.png

The Open Source Initiative (OSI) are the stewards of the Open Source Definition (OSD) and the community-recognized body for reviewing and approving licenses as OSD-conformant.

Open Source Licenses which have successfully gone through the approval process and comply with the Open Source Definition are available through the source link below.

Good luck!

Thanks, but I'm not making the source freely available, just the executable. So I'm not sure this applies.
