You mean, like 'Internet Explorer'? http://news.cnet.com/Microsoft-settles-trademark-case/2100-1001_3-212931.html http://news.cnet.com/Microsoft-settles-tradem

  No, not like Internet Explorer. It's more like an application for browsing the Internet called The Internet Browser, or a device for toasting bread called The Bread Toaster, or a seaport for planes called The Air Port.

  But no Internet browsing software was called "explorer". If it had been called "Internet Browser" you'd have a point.

  I would have gone with "Windows" since it was a common term for a UI element at the time.
  • cygx 14y ago
    And you're still free to call the UI element by that name.
    • protomyth 14y ago
      Yep, but don't use it in part of your product's name.
