Hello, I'm a french software developer and a have a question concerning
the Vista icons.
Is it allowed / legal to have one or two Vista Icons from the RC2 Build
in our application (in c++ resource file)? The application is a System
Tweak Utiltiy for Windows XP and Vista.
Best regards, Berry

Edit: The application is freeware.
 
If the icon is in an icon resource file that is part of Windows, just point
your app to the icon in that resource file. Then you're legally using a part
of Windows.
