      As long as you aren't using licensed components, feel free to market your apps without an MS license. A licensed component would be something like the Office runtimes.

        what about the code that I've download from this Codeproject it really helps a lot... Am I liable to these authors especially on c# articles..but I think it shareware? let me give you some real case.. I have a client that could have spent more than a million pesos for such computerization projects but with the help of codeproject free source I have given them a very inexpensive developed c# application running on network instead buying from Micrsoft Server-Client Software...of course the MS Windows XP is license.. So meaning this would give me freedom from Microsoft licensed? or as an Independent Software Vendor.. thank you very much, I really appreciate your reply..

          You need to check the license agreement on any article whose code you have used. If you aren't sure whether or not you need to license a particular piece of code, get in touch with the author. As you say, you obviously need to license things such as the OS, and other things such as SQL Server.
