Protect Software Copyright

Hi, i use a VB language, currently developing a software for my company. Is there any way to protect my software copyright?

Thanks

 

Re: FAQ: Which Language Is The Best To Learn.

If it is Your company, that is, your own the business, then Yes you certainly can Register a copyright.

If, however, you are programming as an employee, your employer is considered to be the copyright holder.

See the section on What is a work made for hire

Also, the Copyright Office FAQ about copyright.

For Web pages displaying a copyright notice, the symbol entity is [noparse]#169[/noparse]

The form for a copyright notice is:
© copyright 2010 Your Name

If that is plainly visible to anyone using the program, then that is considered a legitimate copyright, although if it is Registered it carries more weight.
