Answer B is incorrect. InetLoad is a Microsoft utility that is used to measure the performance of a
Web application when it is being
bombarded with hits from all sides. It is a free utility that helps site administrators to stress test their
applications by simulating simultaneous
access by thousands of Internet users.
Answer C is incorrect. A copyright is a form of intellectual property, which secures to its holder the
exclusive right to produce copies of
his or her works of original expression, such as a literary work, movie, musical work or sound
recording, painting, photograph, computer
program, or industrial design, for a defined, yet extendable, period of time. It does not cover ideas or
facts. Copyright laws protect intellectual
property from misuse by other individuals.
Answer D is incorrect. A trademark is a mark that is used by a company to distinguish its products
from those of other companies. There
are various ways a company uses its trademark to distinguish its products from others. It can use
words, letters, numbers, drawings, pictures,
and so on, in its trademark.
