[edit] Licensing

This is a screenshot of copyrighted computer software for Microsoft Windows, and the copyright for its contents is most likely held by the author(s) or the company that created the software. It is believed that the use of a limited number of web-resolution screenshots:

for identification of and critical commentary on the software in question
in the absence of a free alternative,
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

…qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Fair use for more information.

[edit] Fair use for Microsoft

The image linked here is claimed to be used under fair use as:

it is a historically significant screenshot of a version of Windows
it is of much lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be of very inferior quality)
the screenshot is only being used for informational purposes.
Its inclusion in the article adds significantly to the article because it gives an example of what is discussed in a significant part of the article. 72.254.21.164 16:56, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
