The + terms of the GNU General Public License still apply as compressing + a program is a special form of linking with our stub. + + Hereby Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer and Laszlo Molnar grant you special + permission to freely use and distribute all UPX compressed programs + (including commercial ones), subject to the following restrictions: + + 1. You must compress your program with a completely unmodified UPX + version; either with our precompiled version, or (at your option) + with a self compiled version of the unmodified UPX sources as + distributed by us. + 2. This also implies that the UPX stub must be completely unmodfied, i.e. + the stub imbedded in your compressed program must be byte-identical + to the stub that is produced by the official unmodified UPX version. + 3. The decompressor and any other code from the stub must exclusively get + used by the unmodified UPX stub for decompressing your program at + program startup. No portion of the stub may get read, copied, + called or otherwise get used or accessed by your program. + + +ANNOTATIONS +=========== + + - You can use a modified UPX version or modified UPX stub only for + programs that are compatible with the GNU General Public License. + + - We grant you special permission to freely use and distribute all UPX + compressed programs. But any modification of the UPX stub (such as, + but not limited to, removing our copyright string or making your + program non-decompressible) will immediately revoke your right to + use and distribute a UPX compressed program. + + - UPX is not a software protection tool; by requiring that you use + the unmodified UPX version for your proprietary programs we + make sure that any user can decompress your program. This protects + both you and your users as nobody can hide malicious code - + any program that cannot be decompressed is highly suspicious + by definition. + + - You can integrate all or part of UPX and UCL into projects that + are compatible with the GNU GPL, but obviously you cannot grant + any special exceptions beyond the GPL for our code in your project. + + - We want to actively support manufacturers of virus scanners and + similar security software. Please contact us if you would like to + incorporate parts of UPX or UCL into such a product. + + + +Markus F.X.J.
