Non-free media information and use rationale true for Microsoft Security Essentials
Description	This is the computer icon of Microsoft Security Essentials.
Source	Icon was extracted from program executable.
Article	Microsoft Security Essentials
Portion used	The entire icon is used to convey the meaning intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image.
Low resolution?	The icon is of a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the company or organization, without being unnecessarily high resolution.
Purpose of use	The image is used to identify Microsoft Security Essentials, a notable product. The significance of the icon is to help the reader identify the product, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about that product, and illustrate branding associations of the product in a way that words alone could not convey.
Replaceable?	Because it is an icon of a proprietary product, there is almost certainly no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary.
