I do agree with you... The point is I'd love to write a how-to run this app without any windiws license. Which does not mean I do not have a legal license here... ;-)

Hi all,
I'm a newbie in wine using and wine developpement. I just need information about comctl32.dll and commctrl.dll.
I'm trying to have this app (http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?appId=1485&versionId=2451) working. In fact, it works. But only using native comctl32.dll, which requires native commctrl.dll.

Is it planned to fix commctrl.dll, to avoid piracy ?
You probably shouldn't admit to copyright infringement on a public mailing list.

I think you're jumping to conclusions, Rob; here's the info on the program (from the link)
Description Full up-to-date collection of the Watchtower Bible & Tracts Society publications ,including full text of the Bible(very precise "New World Translation of the Hebrew & Greek Scriptures") with links,also 2-Volume "Insight on the Scriptures" -- full encyclopedia of all biblical terms and names,all equipped with full-featured search engine.A powerful tool for Bible study.(Freely distributed by Jehovah's Wittnesses,no URL available)
So the program itself appears to be free (libre), even if there's no website to actually get it from ;-) . Now, naturally what is not freely distributable is comctrl.dll, but there's no indication that the OP doesn't have a Windows licence and if Dripple does have such a license, there's no piracy involved, afaik. I have a Win98 licence, insofar as I have a retail copy of Win98 that I bought 5 years ago-- I can copy the comctrl.dll that is on that disk to my Wine installation without breaking any laws, can't I? (Please tell me if not, so I won't do it again ;-) ).
