Understanding Software Licenses
When installing software, you'll almost always be presented with an end user license agreement that must be agreed to before installation can continue. The software license usually addresses issues such as:
- Where and how often can you install the program?
- Can you copy it?
- Can you modify it?
- Can you redistribute it?
