Legality of links ?

I have a question about the legality of linking to a site on the internet. Whilst researching a new site I am to build for someone I found this snippet in the legal pages of a site on the net.

Quote:
Linking to the daffy duck web site
No link of any kind, be it by hypertext link, the use of frames or any other method, may be made to this Site or any web page or content displayed on this Site without the prior written permission of Daffy Duck Europe N.V..


Surely this company can not stop you linking to them ?

Please note that the names of the site have been changed. Ie the site in question isnt really called daffy duck
Comments on this post
EGOL agrees: I think that you should link to it in your signature.

I'm not a lawyer, but I am quite sure that they can't take any legal action against links to their site.

They also removed the embed code in their email vids.

A business that doesn't want publicity. Very strange eh ?
