Well, the program names are trademarked - there is no patent or copyright 
on program names. However, they use common names for which there is only 
a very limited protection. And going after others who use similar names 
did already backfire. When Lindows threatened to have the MS Windows 
trademark canceled, Microsoft payed Lindows to change their name.
